AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

A new phone has come out and Baby Mouse feels left out because all her friends have one. Baby Mouse pleas with her parents for the new Whiz Bang and they finally agree to let her get one. Baby Mouse is ecstatic and can’t wait to use it. But, knowing Baby Mouse, will the Whiz Bag survive it’s new owner? This is Baby Mouse’s journey with social media and adolescents.

I enjoyed this book because Baby Mouse is an enjoyable character and is full of laughs. I think that the author did a good job of connecting the story to modern day dilemmas. The pictures were cute, and the story was fun.  This book has more text than previous Babymouse graphic novels, but is still full of expressive illustrations.
