Written by Leo Lionni
A mouse teaches his friends to gather memories, not just food, for winter.
Frederick, a thoughtful mouse, shows his friends that preparing for winter involves more than just gathering food. As the seasons change, he collects the beauty of each day—sights, sounds, and smells—to share during the cold months. Can Frederick's unique approach bring warmth and joy to his community when they need it most? Discover how one small mouse's creativity and spirit can light up the darkest days.
The first new original Leo Lionni picture book in nearly 30 years, featuring the beloved mouse Frederick as he guides his fellow mice–and young listeners–through a joyous celebration of the seasons. There is more than one way to prepare for a long winter, as Frederick tells his friends in the classic story. Gathering food and other supplies is important, but gathering the smells, sounds, and sights of a beautiful day to recall later are just as vital. How one little mouse cheers his entire community and prepares them for a full year ahead is a story that young children will love.
