Mousie , I will Read to You by Rachael Cole –GIFT

Mousie , I will Read to You By Rachael Cole, illustrated by Melissa Crowton.  PICTURE BOOK. Schartz & Wade (Penguin Random). 2018. $18. 9781524715366

BUYING ADVISORY: PRE-K, EL (K-3)  GIFT

AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE

Baby mousie is growing up and the parent mouse tells the story of how s/he will read to the baby always –starting when the baby is little and “long before the works make sense”. It continues until one day Mousie has a baby mouse of his/her own. Feature harmonious and simple illustrations.

Prepare for a cry, this book is so adorable. It’s a perfect gift for a new parent, especially one who is a big reader with their kids. It’s a beautiful story will stellar heart meltingly cute illustrations. The characters seem gender neutral to me, a bonus. I don’t think this would be a good fit for a library –although it has great cover appeal.
