Do you know the difference between knowledge and wisdom? In this Indian fable, six different-colored, blind mice explore a "strange Something by their pond." One by one they come back with conflicting bits of information. Then, the seventh mouse goes out to investigate the complete "Something" — and brings back the whole truth.
This multi-level book will allow you to explore a variety of concepts with your children — color, counting, days of the week, isolating our senses, as well as fear of the unknown and the difference between knowledge and wisdom. Vibrant collage illustrations. Paperback, 40 pages. Caldecott Honor Award Winner.
