Mouse and Momma head out to play—only to discover that spring has sprung in this Classic Board Book!
One bright day, Mouse and Momma head outside to play. The wind blows in something feathery and plump (a bird), something wiggly and pink (a worm), and something green that hops and leaps (a frog). But before it’s time to go back inside, Mouse finds something with petals that’s soft and new...the prettiest flower he’s ever seen! Could it mean spring is finally here?
Available for the first time as a Classic Board Book, this seasonal story is perfect for even the youngest of readers.

She lives with her husband and son in Brooklyn, New York.

PreS. When Mouse and his momma venture out on a spring day, they discover a butterfly, a snail, a bird, a frog, a worm, and a flower. Each new discovery mystifies the little mouse: "There on a stem, Mouse found something sweet and petally." Or is he bluffing? In any case, young children will be glad to help him identify each one with help from the rounded, simplified forms in Erdogan's painterly illustrations. The wind blows through at intervals, creating a pattern in the story line, while the rhythmic and sometimes rhyming text creates patterns as well. Finally, Mouse discovers his own mother, in a conventionally sweet, hug-and-kiss ending. Though lacking the freshness of the earlier books in the series, such as Mouse's First Christmas (1999) and Mouse's First Halloween (2000), this fills the bill for preschool teachers seeking seasonal read-aloud choices.
