About the book

(goodreads) While other mice are gathering food for the winter, Frederick seems to daydream the summer away. When dreary winter comes, it is Frederick the poet-mouse who warms his friends and cheers them with his words. (Amazon) Winter is coming, and all the mice are gathering food . . . except for Frederick. But when the days grow short and the snow begins to fall, it’s Frederick’s stories that warm the hearts and spirits of his fellow field mice. (Amazon) Winner of a 1967 Caldecott Honor, Frederick has been cherished by generations of readers - story about a little mouse who gathers something unusual for the long winter is celebrating its fiftieth birthday!

First sentence: But the farmers had moved away, the barn was abandoned, and the granary stood empty.
