If You Give A Mouse A Cookie by Laura Joffe Numeroff is about a boy who gives a mouse a cookie and then has to take care of him all day. The mouse then preceeds to want more things like milk, a nap, a story, and by the end more milk and cookies. This is a really fun book to read to little kids. It was one of my favorite's growing up because it came with a stuffed animal mouse with a detachable cookie on his hand. It is always fun to get to have a prop to share while reading a story. I like the humor used. and the intense picture support for the text. This is a great book for kids to have. It's about a little boy that gives a mouse he sees a cookie. After he gives the mouse a cookie, the mouse wants more and more from the little boy. The little boy soon realizes that he shouldn't have given that mouse a cookie, and almost comes to realize how demanding such a little animal can be. This is a great book to have in the library. www.lauranumeroff.com no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com (ISBN 0060245867, Hardcover)Who would ever suspect that a tiny little mouse could wear out an energetic young boy? Well, if you're going to go around giving an exuberantly bossy rodent a cookie, you'd best be prepared to do one or two more favors for it before your day is through. For example, he'll certainly need a glass of milk to wash down that cookie, won't he? And you can't expect him to drink the milk without a straw, can you? By the time our hero is finished granting all the mouse's very urgent requests--and cleaning up after him--it's no wonder his head is becoming a bit heavy. Laura Joffe Numeroff's tale of warped logic is a sure-fire winner in the giggle-generator category. But concerned parents can rest assured, there's even a little education thrown in for good measure: underneath the folly rest valuable lessons about cause and effect. Felicia Bond's hilarious pictures are full of subtle, fun details. Fans will be happy to know that this dynamic author-illustrator pair teamed up again for If You Give a Moose a Muffin and If You Give a Pig a Pancake.
