Mouse has a surprise waiting for him in the kitchen. He doesn't mind, though. He's a happy mouse and he likes to bake.
Mouse is a wonderful character for children. He has a lesson for them in this tale about friendship but does it in such a subtle way.
The Best Mouse Cookie is "An If You Give" book. Mouse is no stranger to children who follow the series of books. He's a loveable little guy and the stories are laugh outloud funny and downright cute for young children.

Children's book author Laura Numeroff has written more than a half dozen mouse cookie books. She and illustrator Felicia Bond have worked together for the "If You Give" series of books and the brightly colored illustrations make The Best Mouse Cookie a must-have for any child's bookshelf.
