M mouse wears red sounds like C25 country mouse cleans up. A mouse in a red dress cleans house with the help of friends. If it's the earlier printing it's not a bad match, though I couldn't find any mention of a visit as the reason for cleanup. Elizabeth Upham, Little Mouse Dances. It's not exactly as you describe but features a mouse who doesn't like to clean and lets the dirt and dust pile up while she sings and dances all day. Then she buys a new red dress and shoes and they get dusty so she eventually cleans them up then goes ahead and cleans up everything else in her house because she enjoys the way the clean clothes look.

At the end she puts on her red dress, red shoes, and a red flower over her ear and dances in her clean house. I hope this is what you're looking for. I have 2 really old craft books.

Lots of fun projects and readings. Don't know if thisis the series or not, as I don't know when they were first published, but it could be Frank Peretti's Cooper Kids Series. This just might be the Jack Dawn series by Joseph Coughlin.

Piggy Monday : a tale about manners (eBook, ) [leondumoulin.nl]

He wrote a number of titles in the s and one in the s. The book is very Christian, with more than one conversion and a fair amount of discussion of Christian behaviour, and the Orlis family does live in the boonies, at Angle Inlet, without electricity, television, etc. The title list on the back cover mentions Ron Orlis as well as Danny , but there is no indication in this book whether Ron is an older or younger brother, or adopted, or where he is the rest of the time.

I think this person might be looking for the Danny Orwell series--there was also a radio program that aired on Saturday mornings during the late s featuring these boys. I hope I'm right about Danny's last name, but the shows and the books definitely had a Christian theme. The boys in this series weren't brothers, but the two main characters were a boy named Bill and his best friend, nicknamed Poetry. The other details are similar to what you describe: Christian-oriented mysteries, at least one conversion, etc. Bernard Palmer was published through Moody Press and wrote other children's series.

The books are back in print and are readily available. Danny orlis also had an advice column in the Campus Life monthly magazine, as I recall. Ken Anderson, The Austin Boys, It might be the Austin Boys.

Piggy Monday: A Tale about Manners (Concept Books (Albert Whitman))

Just wanted to say that this book does exist, though I can't identify it yet - several years ago I saw a description of it, and remember thinking it was a knock-off of the Chinese Brothers story. Five Chinese Brothers. This one is already listed in your solved pages. C49 chinese boy: There are at least two other versions of this folktale, one being Six Chinese Brothers: an Ancient Tale , retold and illustrated by Cheng Hou-Tien , published Holt , 32 pages.

The story is essentially the same, illustrated with scissor cuts in bright red and black. When the third brother runs afoul of the emperor and is sentenced to be beheaded, the fourth brother, who has bones of iron, takes his place. The emperor then tries drowning and burning but each time a different brother foils his scheme. So I don't think we have to be too sure that it's the Claire Huchet Bishop version C49 chinese boy: the Mahy version can be ruled out. I saw a copy at a thrift shop and the story does NOT include swallowing large quantities of water. Instead the emperor is afraid of the power s of what he believes to be a single man, and tries to execute him in various ways.

Six Chinese Brothers , by Cheng Hou-tien , is supposed to have pretty much the same story as Five Chinese Brothers but different illustrations, and is probably worth checking out.

The first brother can hold a lake in his mouth, but a village child wanders out too far to pick up fish and drowns when the brother releases the water. The emperor orders him executed by beheading, so he tells the emperor he needs to go home to say goodbye to his family. The second brother who just happens to have an iron neck is sent in his place. When the executioner breaks his sword on the brother's neck, the emperor orders him burned. So they swap in the brother who ca''t be burned and so on The stories with six or seven brothers are more about the emperor's fear of the brothers' power, and his attempts to prevent them from taking the throne.

Zapf, Marjorie. The Mystery of the Great Swamp. Same as E1? C56 creepy cover: after checking pictures on eBay, I have to say that unfortunately the Zapf cover doesn't match, neither does the cover of Ghost Boat , or The Button Boat. Boston, The Children of Green Knowe , , reprint. Rather than 3 children, there is an old man with an oar and a boy in the front of the boat holding up a lit lantern. It's a spooky cover!

Strange Monster of Strawberry Cove , late s. The cover description sounds to me like a Scholastic Press book I read in elementary school -- these were paperback books peddled in the California school system via a newsletter passed out in class. Can't find any record of this book in Internet searches, though there's a Disney? The lantern lights the monster's eyes, or something. BTW the title I supplied is that of the movie.

The book title was at least similar but may not be completely identical. It was MUCH more colorful--rather than two-color with black and white, brown and green, or green and yellow, this had a lot of murky blue, swamp green, yellow glow from the lantern. The feature which struck me most was the particular round, protruding characteristic of the children's eyes, giving them an eerily apprehensive appearance. The style of the drawing, particularly those bug eyes, is very much like that of the prolific and popular artist Susan Perl.

  5. Whether that provides a clue I couldn't say, as I don't know that the illustrator was Susan Perl, or that there'd be any way to confirm it, such as an official Susan Perl website. No idea who published such books, but I'm thinking not Weekly Reader or Scholastic but some fly-by-night printer no one will have heard of. Normally, once I know the title and author of a favorite childhood book, it's been relatively easy to get copies for my sisters, but in this case my own copy is the ONLY one I have ever SEEN--that includes not only in used bookstores but on eBay or any other online search.

    It was a big favorite and will go right in the glass case I've built for rare and hard-to-find titles. Vera Cleaver, Ellen Grae , I keep thinking that this might be Ellen Raskin's original cover for Vera Cleaver's Ellen Grae - the kids have dropped the lantern and are trying to get it back with the fishing pole.

    But I can't find a copy of the book or an image on-line to check my memory! Wylly Folke St.

    John, Secret of Hidden Creek , , approximate. I think this might be the book your looking for. Don't know the story, but this person must find a copy of Crusade in Jeans by Thea Beckman. Won awards in the Netherlands, and is a great story of the Children's Crusades.

    The Chidren's Crusade ? Title was definitely "The Children's Crusade" but I can't remember the author. Used to get this one when I'd forgotten the title of "Crusade in Jeans" heartily agree with the earlier recommendation on this one, too! Henry Treece 75, approximate Back again. Internet suggests the Author may be Henry Treece? This is definitely the book I remember, and involves the boy and his sister?

Marjorie Torrey, Three Little Chipmunks, We searching forever for this book as well and my sister just recently found it and bought it - We grew up with Chuffy, Chirpy and Cheeky!!! I read this book in a Wisconsin one-room schoolhouse in the late forties and then tried to find it for YEARS; I finally found one last year on ebay.
