love it I bought this book because my son adores the mouse in these stories and can't get enought of If you give a mouse a cookie. So with saying that when I seen that the mouse was now going to bake a cookie i thought it would be perfect to add to his collection. My son is now carrying this book around for everyone to read it to him. Good job to the auther she keeps the stories cute and simple for toddlers.
Not as fun as the others I did buy this book thinking it was going to be like the other books in the series. My 2 year old and I were both disappointed. It is a cute book, but considering my daughter was already enjoying the longer books in the series, this one was just not as entertaining.
not as fun as other Numeroff-Bond collaborations Do not buy this book expecting the same hilarious adventures of "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie". The same little rodent is featured, and the illustrations are excellent, but the action almost exclusively concerns the mouse's solitary baking. It is a short board book meant for the younger crowd and is entertaining, but it is strangely disjointed, particularly when one considers the fluid antics of the earlier books -- a fine introduction to the Numeroff-Bond books, but this one will not have the same staying power.
Toddler favorite My youngest is 2 years old and has this book memorized. He pretends to "read" it word for word including "written by Laura Numeroff, Illustrated by Felicia Bond." Excellent introduction for young children to get involved/interested in reading.
Good - but not the same style of "If you give a mouse..." If you're looking for another book like "If you give a Moose a Muffin" or "If you give a mouse a cookie" - you should know that this book is NOT written in that same style at all. There are no hilarious antics for what the mouse asks for or is reminded of next. This book was written for babies and young children, so the text is much simpler (but still clever). The illustrations are great and just what you'd expect if you've read her other popular books. This book is a wonderful way to introduce a baby or toddler to Laura's well-written series of books.
