Customer Reviews

Reading over and over and over

My new reader (first grade) can't get enough of this book. We borrowed a copy from the library and had to buy it to keep. Each interactive page entices the reader to keep going and help solve the mystery. My child reads this book to anyone who will listen. Our favorite page has a mirror on it to help decode the backwards message from one of the pull-out pages. We stumbled onto this book on the library shelf and I was surprised to see it in such good condition with all the pull-out pieces inside. This is a definite "keeper" book meant to be owned and read over and over and over.

A delightful mystery for young readers.

Mailbox Mice Mystery isn't really suitable for library lending but parents seeking a very special gift for a young reader will relish this caper which provides envelopes with clues for solving the mystery of the missing cheese. When all the cheese in Little Falls disappears, it's up to Watson Mouse to solve the mystery!
