About this title

Review:

From the pages of Laura Joffe Numeroff and Felicia Bond's very funny tale of warped logic If You Give a Mouse a Cookie jumps the demanding rodent himself, complete with detachable chocolate-chip cookie. Each 7-inch-tall mouse has movable arms and legs, removable denim overalls with a hole for the tail, and polka-dot boxers beneath! You may want to keep the cookie away from this soft mouse because, as you know, "If you give a mouse a cookie, he's going to ask for a glass of milk. When you give him the milk, he'll probably ask you for a straw." Each mouse comes packaged in a gift box with a miniature 4-inch by 5-inch hardcover edition of the book. 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)

From the Back Cover:

If a hungry little traveler shows up at your house, you might want to give him a cookie. If you give him a cookie, he's going to ask for a glass of milk. He'll want to look in a mirror to make sure he doesn't have a milk mustache, and then he'll ask for a pair of scissors to give himself a trim. . . .

The consequences of giving a cookie to this energetic mouse run the young host ragged, but young readers will come away smiling at the antics that tumble like dominoes through the pages of this delightful picture book.
