Synopsis

It's tough being the middle mouse. Nora's baby brother and older sister require a lot of attention, and Nora always has to wait. Slamming doors, banging furniture, and even flying a kite on the staircase get no results. It isn't until Nora crashes out the door, and the house goes strangely silent, that her family realizes: a noisy Nora is much better than no Nora at all!

About this title

Review:

Rosemary Wells' tales of animals with very human problems make her a favourite from the board-book years on. Now one old Wells' friend, Nora, that noisy mouse, returns with all her middle- child problems still on display. What's a mouse to do when little brother and big sister take up all mum and dad's time? Yup. Plenty of noise. Look at these new pictures and you can almost hear the racket. With all that clatter, it might be better to read this one before dinner, not before bed!
