Summary: Ten Little Mice makes our son squeal and squeak
Comment: Our son (20 months old) usually likes rhyming picture books - generally because of the rythm, cadence and predictability). But this score rates a perfect 10 with him. He can't get enough of us reading it aloud to him as each mouse scurries home to the cozy nest. This is part of his bedtime ritual. As the last page of the book reads of the mice sleeping happily, our son puts his head down, too. Except so many times when we shut the book, he begs to start the counting adventure again. He can identify the corresponding animals and landscape in the pictures. This is so rewarding to us in our emphasis on literacy. This book is a pearl!

Summary: Rhythmic text and gorgeous illustrations
Comment: Rhythmic text and gorgeous illustrations make this book a delight for parents and children. Each two-page spread finds the original group of ten variegated mice losing one mouse to the lure of his cozy nest.
For example: "Eight little mice in a barley field were climbing from stalk to stalk. One saw the tail of a prowling cat, so he ran-ran home to his cozy nest." "Four little mice by a cool dark pool were splishing and splashing and sliding. One fell in, and soaked to the skin, he slip-slopped home to his cozy nest."
The illustrations are vivid and lifelike and filled with detail that I enjoy even when reading the story for the sixth time in a row. Skip the small board-book edition and purchase one of the larger versions to be able to appreciate all the details of the illustrations!

Summary: My 2 year old loves it!
Comment: I like to borrow books from the library before ordering them online to see which ones my daughter really likes. This was one we had to order! The illustrations are attractive and the verses are poetic but don't quite rhyme the way you think would. The style reminded me of Margaret Wise Brown's "Goodnight Moon," rhyming, but not in a standard way. Of course, I'm only speculating why she likes the book so much. She'll have to tell you in a couple years why it's one of her favorites!
