Who would ever suspect that a tiny little mouse could wear out an energetic young boy? Well, if you're going to go around giving an exuberantly bossy rodent a cookie, you'd best be prepared to do one or two more favors for it before your day is through. For example, he'll certainly need a glass of milk to wash down that cookie, won't he? And you can't expect him to drink the milk without a straw, can you? By the time our hero is finished granting all the mouse's very urgent requests--and cleaning up after him--it's no wonder his head is becoming a bit heavy. Laura Joffe Numeroff's tale of warped logic is a sure-fire winner in the giggle-generator category. But concerned parents can rest assured, there's even a little education thrown in for good measure: underneath the folly rest valuable lessons about cause and effect. Felicia Bond's hilarious pictures are full of subtle, fun details. Fans will be happy to know that this dynamic author-illustrator pair teamed up again for IIf You Give a Moose a Muffin/I and IIf You Give a Pig a Pancake/I. (Great read aloud, ages 4 to 8) I--Emilie Coulter/I

 Sweet little book December 20, 2008
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! December 14, 2008
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. br /br /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. December 12, 2008
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! December 10, 2008

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.br /br /Terrible book. Don't read it to your kids.
It was good November 14, 2008
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
