Leo Lionni wrote and illustrated more than forty children’s books in his lifetime, but the one which is the most meaningful to me might be his most famous: Frederick, the story of a little field mouse who keeps his family warm in the middle of a cold winter, by reciting poetry that is so beautiful and so evocative of sunnier seasons. The other mice think he is lazy and daydreaming his days away. However, one field mouse, Frederick, doesn’t seem to be helping at all. It’s difficult to work, but as long as they all pull their weight they should be ready.
