About the Mouse Mansion
The Mouse Mansion is a world of its own, with over a hundred tiny rooms full of houses, shops, streets and outdoor spaces, all mouse-sized. Each room has its own resident, complete with a unique story, personality and family ties. This world is explored by two curious mice: Sam and Julia. The everyday adventures they experience in the Mouse Mansion teach young readers valuable life lessons. The Mouse Mansion is a safe haven, an inclusive world, and a story about friendship and community.
The book series now includes six beautifully illustrated titles of which two are translated to English: Sam and Julia and At the theater. With every book, you’ll discover a new part of the Mouse Mansion.
About Karina Schaapman
The Mouse Mansion was handcrafted by artist Karina Schaapman (born in 1960). She wanted to create a children’s book – not with drawings, but with photos of scenes from her self-built Mouse Mansion. The story of Sam and Julia was already in her mind. What started with a few pieces of cardboard and some glue grew into a full miniature world with over a hundred little rooms. A world where, as Karina says, she would want every child to grow up.
The original Mouse Mansion is three metres tall and two metres wide. You can admire it in real life at the Mouse Mansion shop and museum on Muntplein in Amsterdam.
