Angelina is very excited because she got a letter. In it were two tickets that she won to a performance of Cindermouse. Now she has to find someone to go with her. Of course she asks her best friend Alice first but Alice got a card inviting her to a birthday party and she already accepted. Next Angelina she asks William but William got a letter inviting him to play football with his friends. Finally Angelina goes to see her cousin Henry but poor Henry just got a card in the mail reminding him that he has an appointment to see Dr. Tuttle. Angelina is feeling very glum indeed when her dancing teacher comes rushing up with yet another letter. What is this letter going to be about?
In this charming interactive picture book the reader gets to read cards, letters, and invitations that all the various characters receive. One can even admire a lovely poster that Angelina gets. Once again we get to share in the small events in this charming little mouse's life and enjoy the detailed and colorful illustrations. This book will delight any budding little ballet dancer or any little girl who has a fondness for little mice.

ACTION ALERT!
Reading is Fundamental (RIF) needs your help. The President's proposed fiscal year 2009 budget released in February eliminates the Inexpensive Book Distribution Program, which is the RIF Book Distribution Program. Unless Congress reinstates funding for this program, RIF will be unable to distribute 16 million books annually to the nation's youngest and most at-risk children. RIF serves 4.6 million children. Please click on the link below to visit the RIF Action Alert page so you can make your voice heard and support their efforts.
