Grandmouse only left three days ago, but so much has happened since then—a trip to the zoo, Willy the caterpillar changed into a chrysalis and then a blackout!  Mama suggests for Mouserella to write a letter to her Grandmouse because she just misses her so much.  She adds drawings and photos from the camera Grandmouse gave her and also includes a special surprise.  This story’s format looks and sounds like a newsy letter from a child that may inspire children to write to someone they love.
