If You Give a Mouse a Cookie

Description:

About this item:

If a hungry little mouse shows up on your doorstep, you might want to give him a cookie. And if you give him a cookie, he'll 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....

This book is a great first introduction to Mouse, the star of the If You Give... series and a perennial favorite among children. With its spare, rhythmic text and circular tale, If You Give a Mouse a Cookie is perfect for beginning readers and story time. Sure to inspire giggles and requests to "read it again!"

The award-winning If You Give a Mouse a Cookie, one of the most beloved children’s books of all time, is from the #1 New York Times bestselling team Laura Numeroff and Felicia Bond. Other favorites in this series include:

  • If You Give a Cat a Cupcake
  • If You Give a Dog a Donut
  • If You Give a Moose a Muffin
  • If You Give a Pig a Pancake
  • If You Give a Pig a Party

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

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. (Great read aloud, ages 4 to 8)

The illustration is absolutely sweet and colorful. My grand-daughter loves this book!!! We read it about 5 times every day that she is with me. My 36 and 37 year old children loved it as well when I used to read it to them. A timeless book for sure! Money well spent. I plan to purchase more books from this author.

My son has me reading this book at least 4 times a week. I remember reading this book as a kid and I'm happy to know that my son enjoys it as well. Now that I'm older I can really appreciate how well illustrated the book is.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best children's books ever written.

One of my favorites! I bought for a gift for my grandson. It’s very cute and great quality. I’ll be ordering the other similar books by the author.

Very Reputable company

I was very pleased to see a refund only 1 week after the book had sold out. Very disappointed because it is a great book "If you give a mouse a cookie" and I was surprised to see it on this site. They sent a very nice kind detailed message which I didn't find until months later . Totally my fault because I just didn't understand where to find the message but just came across it by accident. Very grateful even though it was not an expensive item item it is the principal of having money returned for products not received. Very Stand Up company and would definitely order from them again.

Livro maravilhoso

A childhood classic I love sharing with my children

C.A. · September 28, 2022

As stated in the title, a childhood favorite that engages children and spurs them on to make up funny consequences for situtations outside of reading time.A new, old reading staple in our household.

Great story
