My younger son loved these books when he was a little boy. George and Matilda Mouse by Heather Buchanan.
The illustrations are just gorgeous!
They tell the story of a little mouse family and their adventures.
Can't bring myself to take them to the charity shop, so they will stay with me in the meantime.
Do you have trouble giving away things that your children loved?
Love, Liz

I kept all their children’s books and their baby clothes.
Beautiful illustrations! These books look in very good condition, I was very reluctant to let go of the ladybird books I had which my daughter and grand-daughter had enjoyed but I sent them to a blogger who collected ladybird books so I knew they would be treasured. There are others that I just can't let go most particularly the Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe because it was mine and it has been well read by 3 generations :-) Keep well Amanda x
I kept the books my son loved. I gave many, many hundreds of his books away, but not the extra-special ones. I feel that it's okay to keep them until I pass away, if he doesn't want them.
Oh, these are lovely, Liz! I strongly recommend you hold on to them, as I've got a feeling you'll be sorry one day if you take them to the charity shops. I was delighted to find some of my childhood books when we cleared the parental home, and now they live with me! xxx
