Mice make wonderful carving subjects. Their high-speed antics and
busy, scampering ways always attract attention and are the stuff of
countless stories. The carving project presented here features an
industrious mouse who, having gathered up a plump strawberry for
dinner, has paused to enjoy the cooling shade of a strawberry leaf
before heading home. The mouse, strawberry, and strawberry leaf are
carved separately from unseasoned (or green) white pine. Over 230
color photographs and clear, concise instructions guide the reader
through each and every step, making the process both enjoyable and
rewarding. Techniques for soldering brass, placing glass eyes, and
applying color stains to the finished mouse accompany the wood
carving instructions. Twenty-one patterns and a color gallery of
additional storybook mice caught in the midst of their busy lives
are provided to fire the imagination. Carvers with basic skills
will enjoy the challenges and advanced carvers will find David's
detail work fascinating.
