Summary: A Quirky Classic about Mice and Christmas. Read it anyways.
Review: Marvin the Magnificent, Raymond and Fats are three mice out to enjoy life ... in Macy's department store. When the toy department's Santa gets kidnapped they are on the case in the best manner of old-movie private eyes. But how can three mice track him down and rescue him before Christmas?

Narrated by Marvin himself, this story is absolutely hilarious. Don't be stopped by the mice. It was one of my favourite books growing up and I still recall it with great fondness (and a vague sense of irritation that my children's books got sold a few years back).

There are at least three other books about this mouse trio, and I think a couple of them are still in print. This one, however, is my favourite, and worth looking for in your local library/used book store.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A True Classic
Review: This book is apparantly older then I thought! I was watching "You've Got Mail" this evening and had to jump on line and try to get this book, almost 14 years after I read it initially. This story is my absolute all time favorite childrens story, and I sincerely hope that Amazon can find me a used copy of it, for no matter how battered it is I will treasure it always.

Rating: 4 stars

Review: This is a really good book about rodents and they are determained to find the Santa that dissapeared in the Macy's store in New York

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Three Brave Mice
Review: This is an excellent chapter book for children from 8-12. It is a sequel to two previouse books (The Great Cheese Capoer and The Great Rescue Operation)however, it does not require that the other books be read first. They all can be read independent of the others. There are 14 chapters in this book. When the Macy's Santa is missing who can solve the mystery. Three brave mice, of course! Children enjoy this book very much.

Summary: The Great Kidnapping Caper
Review: When I was very little, my sister would read this story to me every Christmas. It was our little tradition. As we grew older, I came to read it on my own. I had two Macy's holiday traditions- The Thanksgiving Day Parade and this story about three lovable mice that take up living in a Macy's over Christmas and the mystery of a missing Santa. I have just found a copy of this book and I can't wait until my fiance have children to be able to read it to them every year. It's definitely a story worth handing down!
