Anatole, by Eve Titus
One of my ds5's current favorite books.
amazon link
Keywords: France mice mouse cheese honor work employment honesty
Previous 4Real thread: Cute books about mice
This is a series of books. We've only read the first, about a mouse and his creativity in searching for a way honestly provide for his family. Cute book. My kids love when I read it with a (pathetic) French accent and ask over and over what all of the French words mean.

I did not remember that I remembered this book until we just picked it up. I never read them with my older boys but remember them from when I was a girl. I had totally forgotten these. Thanks so much for the reminder!

I have never heard of
Anatole by Eve Titus, but found the book this weekend. Slow to the party. What a wonderful book! We just loved it! A great addition to France reading!
How many Anatole books are there?

All those titles and my library has only two. 
I didn't realize that Eve Titus also wrote the Basil series, which we have several. It's so wonderful to keep "discovering" new authors and titles in the world of picture books.
