Mrs. Noodlekugel and Four Blind Mice

Mrs. Noodlekugel is a sweet older women who lives in a secret little house behind Nick and Maxine's tall apartment building.  She lives there with her talking cat named Mr. Fuzzface and four mice who can not see very well.  She babysits for Nick and Maxine and takes them on an adventure into the city to find glasses for her pet mice.
This is a sweet story intended for 1-2 grade readers who are looking for a fictional chapter book with good, kind characters.  I enjoyed Mrs. Noodlekugel's polite manners and the way she tries to teach the animals and children to be respectful to each other.  She reminds me a bit of Mrs. Pigglewiggle!  This is a great whole family read!
