New Mother’s Day & Father’s Day Books Featuring Our Favorite Little Mouse

We’re so excited to share two new releases just in time for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day: Mother’s Day for Mouse and Mouse Helps Dad: A Father’s Day Story.

If you’ve been following along, you may already recognize this sweet little mouse—who first appeared earlier this year in A Strawberry Valentine Story, followed by A Lucky Day for a Mouse and Easter Mouse. With each holiday, the mouse returns in a new setting, bringing a sense of warmth, familiarity, and gentle tradition.

These newest stories continue that feeling.

Mother's Day for Mouse by Lauryn Wendus
Mouse Helps Dad: A Father's Day Story by Lauryn Alyssa Wendus

Both books are part of A Ping of Magic—a growing collection of stories and experiences designed to add a little magic to a child’s early years. The focus is simple: meaningful moments, shared connection, and memories that last.

These aren’t just books to read once and move on from. They’re meant to be experienced together.

Each story is designed as a cozy read-aloud moment between parent and child—something you can return to each year as part of your family’s traditions. Inside, you’ll also find a “To / From / Note” page, where your child can write or draw something just for you, turning the book into a keepsake.

Mother’s Day and Father’s Day don’t have to be complicated to be meaningful. Sometimes, the most lasting moments come from sitting side by side and sharing a simple story.

Mother’s Day for Mouse and Mouse Helps Dad: A Father’s Day Story are now available for sale on Oli Kids Co. or on BN.com.
