The first and best, because the consequences flow naturally from one disaster to another. The pictures on all of the books are excellent, and the stories are fun, but not as coherent as in this one. ( )

In this story, a mouse is given a cookie, and of course, wants some milk to go with it. Then the milk will lead him to want something else, and so on. This is such a fun book!

I can remember this book from when I was younger, and it is still just as good now! ( )

An adorable story of a friendship with a little mouse. Giving the mouse a cookie leads to him needing another thing and the story continues on in this fashion. An easy fun read for kids.

This delightful picture book tells the reader what will happen if you decide to give a mouse a cookie. Young readers will come away smiling at all the things the mouse will want. This book is on a second grade reading level.

If You Give a Mouse a Cookie

Book description

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. (Great read aloud, ages 4 to 8) --Emilie Coulter
