"The Mice Bring the Cheese, The Sparrows the Wine"
Poems and Drawings, by Karen L. Hartmann In 47 poems, complemented by her own drawings, Karen L. Hartmann meditates on memories and events that had a deep impact on her life.

"The Mice Bring the Cheese, The Sparrows the Wine" is a perfect trans-generational reading adventure:
young readers are immediately drawn, not least because of the hand-drawn illustrations. Adults also will thoroughly enjoy these moving reminiscences.
