We are reading this delightful little book, by Ursula Vernon. What better to do on a sick day, than curl up on the sofa in your PJs and read a cute story about a little shrew and a fun little adventure that falls in his lap?
We also spent a little time surfing the internet for information on real shrews. Not quite so cute in real life, but still truly fascinating. In case you’re interested, we learned a little here, and a lot here, and here.
