Welcome to the hilariously hypothetical
world of Laura Numeroff and Felicia Bond. Everything has an impact
on everything else in this world, so if you take a mouse to the
movies, don't be surprised if you find yourself being run ragged
by the exuberant little fellow's increasingly grand appetites.
When we first met him in Numeroff and Bond's tremendously popular
If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, he had more energy than a 2-year-old
on lollipops. Now, in the excitement of the Christmas season,
he's unstoppable. Going from movie theater to Christmas tree lot
to the neighbor's yard for snowmouse-building, he's a very demanding
mouse indeed--in only the best way, of course.
The freshness of the If You Give a... series is diminished only
slightly as the sequels pile up. The dazed and earnest look on
the face of the mouse's long-suffering friend makes a marvelous
foil for the mouse's high-spirited expressions. Adult readers
will chuckle as they recognize the ephemeral passions of a child,
while children will simply love the unfolding chain of events.
A perfect Christmas read-aloud for the impetuous youngster on
your list. (Ages 4 to 8)
