We are a family of readers. We are NOT a family of mice lovers. We have no pets. We certainly don't have any mice.
BUT...maybe we ought to have one, because we DO have a lot of crumbs. Maybe this house needs a mouse, after all...
You see, we've recently acquired an interesting book titled, This House Needs A Mouse. It's not your ordinary, one-dimensional tale of a mouse. It gives a whole new meaning to the term "of mice and men" and the house they tend to share.
This book was a fun read for all three of my kids, ages 3, 5, and 10. Each one of them found something to like in the book.

| 10 yr. old: "I would recommend the book to my friends because I think it's got a great plot. Also, the illustration is really interesting - the way the artist drew it, it's like really good sketching, and there's always something funny going on. The words are good for learning too - they repeat things and teaches even new words. It's a very interesting story about a daring mouse who doesn't give up on his passion!" |

| 5 yr. old: "The story's funny. I like how he cleans up all the crumbs! And look, he just keeps going!" |
 |
| 3 yr. old: "I like the mouse and the pictures." (And then he goes through the pages, pointing to all the pictures he likes.) |
These days, it's hard to find a book that engages readers of all ages. So I consider this particular book a gem among the sea of mediocre books available today.
DO find out more about "This House Needs A Mouse"! It's available now on the book's website, Amazon (hardcover), Amazon (Kindle Edition), Barnes and Noble, and Big Tent Books."
Engaging, filled with dynamic illustrations, alliteration, vocabulary that lends itself to a variety of learning activities, and an interesting plot to round it out - I can definitely say that this is a great book to put under the Christmas tree this year!
I received a copy of the book to review, but all opinions are 100% my own (or the kids')!
