Review: It's good, but it seems like it is missing the ending...

I like children's books, and I might even write a children's book some day...This book is written by that famous Greek writer:  "Anonymous"...  (Fortunately, he wrote many books in English !)And it is in the public domaine, so we can thank Mr. Anonymous for his story so far, and maybe somebody would like to "finish" it...It is the start of a  pretty good children's story, but it doesn't have a middle or an ending... yet... It seems like Act 1 and Act 2, but Act 3 is still missing...  Anonymous didn't write it, yet...Maybe I should finish it, or somebody else can finish it... all we have to do is think of how to continue and end the story with a nice Christmas ending.Let's see:  we have a mouse... and a cat... and the human family, which one illustration shows: two grown women, two children, and a baby...The mouse finds the castle on top of a cake and decides to live in it... The family arrives and is about to cut the cake...  the mouse runs away...End of Story...  or End of Act 2...What could happen in Act 3?The mouse is caught, and... the mouse has a gift for the cat...???  What Christmas present could a cat want?  Anyways: Merry Christmas!  Ho ! Ho! Ho!The children open their Christmas presents and ... the mouse is sleeping inside a Christmas Present???  Merry Christmas!  Ho! Ho! Ho!This could be a perfect project for a group of writers to write a book together...  It is already almost finished... and it is already illustrated!As it is right now, it has almost nothing to do with Christmas, except that there is Christmas in the title, and the story takes place on Christmas Eve... but I bet somebody could take the seeds of this story and make it into a very good Christmas story.I will give it three stars for the seed of the story, and 5 stars for the very beautiful  illustrations...
