Grumpy Sliver and Slice don't like visitors. They are perfectly content, alone, in their dreary Mousery . . . until four shivering mousekins appear at the door. Sliver and Slice agree to let them in from the snowy cold for just one night. But after a dose of warm fires and lullabies, will they really send the adorable mousekins away? Award-winning author Charlotte Pomerantz has created a heartwarming story about two mice who learn that sharing makes things twice as nice.
