CatMouse by Ian Schoenherr
4.0
Cat and Mouse play together, wrestling over a paper umbrella. The text follows a nursery rhyme, changing into Hickory Dickory Dock, and then returning to the original rhyme. As Mouse gets the best of Cat time and again, will they end up as enemies or friends?
The lively illustrations bring the old-fashioned text to vibrant life. Both animals are captured with attention to minute details, but then are made wide-eyed and action filled to great comic effect. Families who have kittens or cats will recognize Cat's movements and body postures as being purely feline. Mouse is much more human than Cat.
Enjoyable, laugh-out-loud nursery rhyme fun. This book will work well for groups of children, and is ideal for use in story times or classroom units. Appropriate for ages 3-5.
