Summary
Two preliminary pencil drawings on the same side of a single sheet, preliminary drawings for the illustration which appears on page 28 of the published book. Two mice stand amongst cups and crockery on the dresser. The two drawings are of the same scene, but the right hand drawing is more finished than that on the left.
