About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels overlooked or discouraged by their small stature or quiet nature. It is a perfect choice for the young dreamer who needs to see that their unique talents can grant them access to worlds that seem out of reach. Norman is a humble mouse who works as a doorman at a grand art museum, but his secret passion is creating art of his own. Through his story, children learn that persistence and creative thinking are powerful tools for self-expression and belonging. Don Freeman's classic storytelling offers a gentle exploration of identity and pride. It is ideal for children aged 3 to 8, especially those who enjoy tinkering, drawing, or exploring the hidden corners of the world. It provides a beautiful opening to discuss how we can find our own space in a big, busy community without losing our individuality.
