Did feel a little Cat in the Hat derivative (animal comes and spoils house while mom's away), but a fun read with great illustrations.

Possible the best of this series--I love the idea of a moose going to a store to buy muffin mix, plus (at story time), I've got a good chance of being the only person who's actually seen a moose, which gives me both a higher preschool cool quotant and gives us something to discuss briefly!

These books are so ridiculous! They crack me up :)

I love how these books come full circle. A great story about all the things that happen when you give a moose a muffin.

solid

I really loved the moose! He was very creative.

This is another book in the "If You Give a..." series that follows the perfected formula. I like these books and this one proved to be no exception with its Moose. Readers will enjoy watching the adventure unfold, but this one isn't as magical to me as some of the others.

For: moose fans; readers wanting a book with developing adventures.

Possible red flags: some readers may be concerned with what type of behavior this book encourages; characters can be seen as demanding and/or pushy.
funny lighthearted

I haven’t read the first of the series, but this works well as a standalone anyway.

This book is about a moose who came for a visit to eat some muffins but when they run out they need to go to the store to get more ingredients. This book is full of laughs and fantasy. This is a great book to read to your class when you want to read a book about fantasy.
