  Hickory, Dickory, Dock! 
  The mouse ran up the clock. 
  The clock struck one, 
  The mouse ran down, 
  Hickory, Dickory, Dock! 
  WITHIN the hollow wall of an old brick mansion, away up near the roof, there lived a family of mice. It was a snug little home, pleasant and quiet, and as dark as any mouse could desire. Mamma Mouse liked it because, as she said, the draught that came through the rafters made it cool in summer, and they were near enough to the chimney to keep warm in winter-time. 
  Besides the Mamma Mouse there were three children, named Hickory and Dickory and Dock. There had once been a Papa Mouse as well; but while he was hunting for food one night he saw a nice piece of cheese in a wire box, and attempted to get it. The minute he stuck his head into the box, however, it closed with a snap that nearly cut his head off, and when Mamma Mouse came down to look for him he was quite dead. The story becomes better after this somber opening, trust me. Find out why those mice ran up that clock.

  Lauren has a secret. Colby has a problem. But when they find each other, everything falls into place. From the author of the Charmed Life series. 
   
  In alternating chapters of verse and prose, new girl Lauren and football hero Colby come together, fall apart, and build something stronger than either of them thought possible—something to truly believe in. 
   
  “Writing in alternating viewpoints, with Lauren’s chapters unfolding in free verse and Colby’s in prose, Schroeder (Falling for You) offers a thoughtful, straightforward, and fairly chaste romance between two kind, generous teens—one burdened by her past, one burdened by his future.” —Publishers Weekly 
   
  “The alternating chapters of Lauren’s poetry and Colby’s conversational prose are well written and help reveal the characters refreshingly unique perspectives, as well as their growth in positive ways . . . This light, fast-paced story will delight romance fans looking for a fun, hopeful read.” —School Library Journal 
   
  “Familiar characters and a quiet plot are elevated by poetry that is as beautiful as it is varied. Lovely in its details.” —Kirkus Reviews

And on top of that, Mind thinks they've forgotten something important… like sending a letter to Grandad in India! Can Maya and Mind work it all out in time for their big cricket game?
  
  Funny, and with heaps of heart, this is a delightful story for younger readers accompanied by beautiful and dynamic illustrations.
  
  "An adorable mindfulness story with a splash of funny." Rashmi Sirdeshpande
  
  "A comedy double-act starring a young girl named Maya, and Mind, the physical manifestation of Maya's emotions and mental state. There's a relatable dynamic between the pair, with Mind hindering and helping Maya in equal measure, and the book serves as a great introduction to emotional literacy for younger readers."
