Book Description:

If a hungry little traveler shows up at your house, you might want to give him a cookie. If you give him a cookie, he's going to ask for a glass of milk. He'll want to look in a mirror to make sure he doesn't have a milk mustache, and then he'll ask for a pair of scissors to give himself a trim....

The consequences of giving a cookie to this energetic mouse run the young host ragged, but young readers will come away smiling at the antics that tumble like dominoes through the pages of this delightful picture book.

This is a preschooler's "classic." Written by Laura Joffe Numeroff and published originally in 1985, it has charming illustrations by Felicia Bond, and is imaginative in an ideal way for many 3,4, 5 year olds who delight in the kooky little things about everyday life. Perfect for reading aloud. Numeroff followed If You Give A Mouse... with equally popular sequels. This edition is a Weekly Reader hardcover.

This is a very cute book. I ordered it for my grandson who is 4. The way the book is written is amusing and he has practically memorized it. This book is one of his very favorites.

A favorite for kids of all ages! A humorous story of a mouse who wants a cookie, then a glass of milk, then...it goes on and on! Enjoy!

super fun book for the parents to read and good for kids learning how to read because of the repeating words.
