MOOSEY MOOSE is a small little book that is written at the Kindergarten reading level. It has a simple sentence on every other page, and contains just 34 words. It's part of themed series with other books titled, LAMBY LAMB, SNAILY SNAIL.
Sample text from three pages:
Moosey Moose is mad.
Yes, Moosey Moose is mad!
Why? Why is Moosey Moose mad?
The artwork in MOOSEY MOOSE is abstract, but fun. I was actually put off by the mustardy page color which makes the contrast with the black, yellow, and orange Moosey colors, muddy. You may have to run this book by your own toddler, if you are reading it to them, to see what they think. Kindergartners will likely not notice.
MOOSEY MOOSE's story is about a temper tantrum. The reader show more enters the tale when Moosey is already mad. We then get to him laying on his back, kicking his little legs. The story resolves well, but the answer is pretty silly. The value here, other than reading practice and entertainment, is that the book gives adults an opportunity to talk about emotions with small children. show less
