Books with title Frederick

While the other field mice work to gather grain and nuts for winter, Frederick sits on a sunny rock by himself. “I gather sun rays for the cold dark winter days,” he tells them. Another day he gathers “colors,” and then “words.” And when the food runs out, it is Frederick, the dreamer and poet, whose endless store of supplies warms the hearts of his fellow mice, and feeds their spirits during the darkest winter days. Frederick’s story will warm readers as well in this Caldecott Honor winning fable.

Some children run away from home to join the circus. This isn't a book about that. So if that's what you had in mind you should look elsewhere. But if on the other hand you're looking for a book about a girl and her brother who run away from home and on their way come across formidable nuns, bloodthirsty pirates, tricky politicians, and gung-ho soldiers, well then you might have found just the thing.
