Mrs. Noodlekugel and Four Blind Mice Daniel Pinkwater

Four farsighted mice get glasses ? and a talking cat solves a family mystery ? as the charmingly eccentric Mrs. Noodlekugel returns.

When Mrs. Noodlekugel?s four mice make a terrible mess with cookie crumbs at tea, she decides to take them on the bus to visit the eye doctor ? and invites Nick and Maxine to come along! The mice ride on Mrs. Noodlekugel?s hat, while Mr. Fuzzface, her talking cat, has the indignity of riding in a carrier. Afterward, the hungry crew head to Dirty Sally?s Lunchroom, but the mice overdo their cheesecake and run out the door. Luckily a policeman is at the ready to help with the search ? as is a rough-edged, yarn-spinning alley cat with a surprising connection to Mr. Fuzzface! It?s all a day in the life of Daniel Pinkwater?s whimsical characters, in a chapter-book series whose comical tone and cozy illustrations are sure to keep young readers coming back for more.
