Beloved author-illustrator Kate Duke's charming mice take the stage in a delightful tale of two bickering brothers. Pip and Squeak share a home, but can't get along. The fumes from Pip's paintings give his brother fits of coughing, and Squeak's singing hurts Pip's ears. Everything the brothers do becomes a competition, including their annual midwinter celebration. Until one year, when their efforts to outdo each other turn into a theatrical collaboration . . . with the best results of all--brotherly love!
