Review

Tiny Mouse loves doing lots of things in lots of different weather, among them nibbling wheat in the sunshine, the feel of crunchy frost on his feet on a cold night, and the feel of snowflakes on his nose, but he does not like rain. As he travels through the pages, the beautiful collage illustrations show him and his antics. There are die cuts on some pages so that the reader and listener get a peek into what will happen next. The littlest fingers can turn a wheel at the end, revealing a beautiful rainbow. This is a nice addition to boardbook collections, especially great for a rainy day, perhaps.

Overall Book Score: good
