Appearing as the sixth major monotone illustration plate within Lathrop's The Fairy Circus (1931), this image is
associated with the following text:
Here mice, wearing bridles, were cantering about, shaking their heads and
curving their tails into sickles. These were not such mice as we know, little
and gray all over and timid - though a house hostile with cats and traps
would make any mouse timid. These were wood mice with great eyes and
friendly, gentle manners, and with fur underneath as white as the gills of a
toadstool.
