My daughter can’t get enough of the witty mouse

The book is such a fun read , my toddler keeps asking me to read it again.

Absolutely love this book.

Its well put together. Super entertaining. A family favorite!

great language

This is the second book by this author that we've gotten. (The other is "The Snail and the Whale"--also fabulous!) My 5-year old daughter loves the language, repetition and intelligence of these books and I enjoy reading them to her just as much. Again, the fable of the small animal outwitting the larger one, plays out beautifully. I'd recommend this to anyone with young children.

One Of The Best!

I read this book to my kindergarten class and they LOVE it! The children act it out, sequence the story through pictures, journal about it and talk about it for months it is one of their favorites and mine too! I love reading it because they get so excited and it is so much fun to read over and over!

The Gruffalo

This is a wonderful and engaging book to have in a classroom library. You can teach various writing and reading concepts such as: inferences, dialogue, patterns, punctuation and rhyme. Kids simply love it and are eager to participate in the reading.

Book full of prediction opportunities: It was Good!

This is a great book for K and 1st graders. The story is written in rhyming fashion and is very thought provoking and it gives lots of chances to guess what happens next. It follows a path and then returns to a ending that make you smile. Kids will love it. Illustrations are well done. Very Imaginative.
