It’s always wonderful to hear from readers, and I’m delighted to
have gathered up some more “likes” recently on Mousenet’s Facebook page.
And it’s great when good reviews trickle in on Amazon.
One otherwise very favorable review that arrived recently from Texas failed,
however, to give the book a perfect score. As the reviewer wrote, “I
took off one star because there were a few sections of the book that pushed
climate change pretty hard, and I strongly dislike political messages being
pushed so overtly in children's books.”
Climate change? Political?
In my view, and that of both the National Academyof Science and the BigCheese, leader of the Mouse Nation,
climate change as a result of human activity is a matter of scientific fact. If the subject is ‘political,’
it’s only because certain politicians have chosen to make it so, for whatever reason.
