Loading... Babymouse, Puppy Loveby Jennifer L. Holm
None. 8th verse, same as the first. But there are some really cute pets here, especially when they're all partying under the bed. ( )I noticed right away that it was just going to be pink and black for the color scheme of the book. Also, the boxes surrounding each image in the book were not perfectly straight, adding a playful mood to the whole story. I loved that this book alluded to things we know outside of this book, including Mickey Mouse, Charlie Brown, and even Charlotte's Web. I also enjoy the fact that throughout the story, we step into the narrator's position and interact with Babymouse as she tries to take care of a pet and keep it for once. The story begins with a babymouse who tells of her loves for pets. She just doesn't have a great history of being very good with them. She has had many different kinds of pets and all have escaped from her. What she really wants is a dog though and when she finally finds one on the street she realizes that they are more work than she thought! Subjects/Content Studies/AASL Standards: Graphic Novels, Caring for Pets. 4.1.2 Read widely and fluently to make connections with self, the world, and previous reading. I really liked how the book was emphasized strongly on emotions portrayed in each situation. The graphics aren't very colorful but that's a good thing because it makes the message and emotion shine more. I also like how Baby Mouse goes through so many animals and yet she still doesn't manage to learn the responsibility of taking care of one. no reviews | add a review
