A wonderful read-aloud . . . Clean-lined, colorful . . . Myriad delightful details . . . The people depicted are diverse both racially as well as in physical ability. Delightful and engaging." --<i>Kirkus </i>(starred review) <p/><b>★ </b>Jaunty and interactive . . . A cheerful there-and-back-again adventure--that's also an excellent color-concept book--perfectly aimed at the very youngest. --<i>The Horn Book </i>(starred review) <p/>Once the book has been read a few times and the mouse found, flip to the end pages for a new game. Match the patches on the endpapers with the related story images throughout the book. Verdict: A fun concept book for the very young with a seek-and-find element for slightly older, more savvy readers. --<i>School Library Journal <p/></i>The book calls for engagement on multiple levels: conveying basic concepts of color and counting ("Can you count the petals/ in the garden bed?), building language skills in the rhymes, and playing seek-and-find for the mouse on each spread. Even the travel patch-dotted endpapers spark activity. . . . Appealing [and] educational. --<i>Publishers Weekly</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Jane Godwin </b>is the highly acclaimed, award-winning Australian author of more than twenty-five books for young people, and her work is published all over the world.
