Frederick

Frederick

by Leo Lionni  |  Grades K-3

Frederick by Leo Lionni is a heartwarming children's book that tells the story of a little field mouse named Frederick who, unlike his fellow mice, spends his time gathering colors, words, and sunshine instead of food for the cold winter. While the other mice initially think Frederick is lazy, they come to appreciate his unique contributions when the bleak winter arrives, and his poetic words and vivid memories provide warmth and comfort. Through simple yet profound storytelling, Lionni beautifully illustrates the value of creativity, individuality, and the different ways one can contribute to a community.
