The handsome pencil and watercolor illustrations (combined digitally) are clean and crisp, with golden little Clemmie contrasting against the white space and gentle background hues. The cute factor of the mouse is ramped up by its increasingly amusing disguises, but it’s Clemmie who steals the show, whether proudly smiling while declaring her superior mousing skills or rearing back in surprise at the discovered mouse. Kids and adults alike will find Clemmie a charmer.
