"If you give a mouse a cookie..." you'll never be able to resist any future requests, especially if he's as cute as the diminutive plush ornament included with this special miniature edition of If You Give a Mouse a Cookie. Decked out in removable red overalls with a detachable Santa hat and candy-cane-covered boxer shorts, the life-sized mouse holds a big (for him), detachable chocolate chip cookie in his paw. The tiny hardcover book is just the right size for small human hands, and loses none of its appeal in miniature. What a perfect holiday gift for devotees of Laura Numeroff and Felicia Bond's delightfully silly If You... series! And while you're celebrating the holidays, don't miss their popular Christmas title, If You Take a Mouse to the Movies. (Ages 3 to 7) --Emilie Coulter |

Sweet little book |
|
I bought this book because I am designing the costumes for a play with a mouse in it and this little face is precious. My own grandchildren are beyond the age where this book would be read to them, but it fits perfectly in my collection of children's books. Any Mom or Dad with a small child should pick up this series of stories. They are classic and delightful. The illustrations are wonderful. |

Mom loves it, too! |
Not all children's books are created equal. What's nice about this book is that it's easy for beginning readers but yet enjoyable at the same time. That's not easy to find in children's books. With only about one sentence per page, it moves quickly, the children feel they are reading and not bogged down on one page.
The story about a mouse that wanted a cookie and then all the things that go with it really captivates the young audience. My children, age 4 and 7, both enjoy reading it or having it read to them over and over -- and I don't mind! |

One of the best. |

This in my opinion is up there with Goodnight Moon and The Hungry Caterpillar...my son loves this book. We actually had to buy this a couple times, because the first copy was paperback, bad decision for a toddler, then we bought a used hardback copy on here, and it has held up great! |

Reaganomics for Kids! |
This story revolves around a mouse who demands ever-increasing amounts of consumer items from an ever-increasingly exasperated boy. Cute pictures hide a terrible message of selfishness and class warfare boiling beneath American society. The whole book devolves into a crude political cartoon, where the boy symbolizes an innocent and hard-working tax payer while the mouse typifies a vile depiction of how the wealthy (or at least those who perceive themselves as wealthy) view the poor and needy. While the boy gives more and more to the mouse the mouse in turn asks more and more of the boy. It paints the situation as unjust and the mouse having little reason to ask for these handouts.
Terrible book. Don't read it to your kids. |

It was good |

It was good because the end was the opposit of the beginning. You have to read the book to see what I mean. I'd tell you, but that would ruin the ending - review by Rick, age 6 |
