QUICK SHOPPING
If You Give a... Series
These are some of our all-time favorite books (and most requested to be read!) for younger children. Originally there was If You Give A Mouse a Cookie. Follow the hilarious antics of the mouse and boy as the mouse goes full-circle from cookie to cookie and all that's in between. The tables are turned on the patient little boy as he is exhausted trying to keep up with the "needs" of the mouse (maybe this helps children understand how parents feel sometimes!). The charming sequels feature an adorable pig and a charming moose who also can get carried away with their desires. The clever stories told by Laura Numeroff are brought to life with the illustrations of Felicia Bond. We use the library heavily, but sometimes you meet a book that you just have to keep. This is definitely one of them! Approx. 29 hardcover pages with dust jacket and embossed cover. - Laura
