This was pretty darn cute and smart - you can tell the Mayers are related! :)
This is a very cute book for young children. It teaches them that when they do something they shouldn't, they should learn to say they are sorry. It also teaches them what I'm sorry means and they should mean it when they say it. Another thing that was important was that it also teaches children to be careful when doing certain things.

The critter in this book is saying sorry after everything he does wrong. He does not understand what saying I'm sorry means. It shows children that sometimes saying sorry is not good enough. It also shows them that when they do things that are wrong or hurtful to people that they should say I'm sorry.
This book is about a little boy who is always doing something wrong. Everytime he does something, he just says, "I'm Sorry" and thinks that it is solved. Finally his mom tells him that saying that does not fix everything all the time. He realizes this and says that he has to be more careful.
Little Critter thinks that just saying "I'm sorry" makes everything okay, but soon finds out he's wrong. Oops, he's sorry...

Mercer Mayer was born December 30, 1943 in Little Rock Arkansas. While attending school at the Honolulu Museum of Art, Mayer decided to enter the field of children's book illustration. He created a portfolio of sketches and peddled them wherever he could. He moved to New York City in 1964, pursuing further instruction at the Art Students League of show more New York, where he met an artist named Marianna who became his first wife. He soon created a new portfolio and with these new sketches persuaded editors at Dial Press and Harper & Row to give him some illustration work. Mayer published his first book, A Boy, a Dog, and a Frog, at Dial Press in 1967. It was notable for being a completely wordless picture book one that tells its story entirely with pictures. Mayer was one of the first illustrators to be credited for using this format. Five more books in this series were to follow. Mayer joined Golden Publishing, creators of Little Golden Books, in 1976. Through them he has sold his "Little Critter" and "Little Monster" series, which are popular with beginning readers. His title Just Me and My Dad made The New York Times Best Seller List for 2012.
