My 4 year old daughter loves this series. In this book are four of the titles (If You Give A Mouse A Cookie, If You Give A Pig A Pancake, If You Give A Moose A Muffin and If You Take A Mouse To SChool)plus songs, activities and recipes to accompany each story. The CD reads through all of the stories and sings the songs. The stories are easy to follow along and the illustrations are wonderful. They start with the title of the book and progress from there. For example, If you give a mouse a cookie, he's going to ask for a glass of milk and so on. The stories are engaging and my daughter's reading skills are progressing rapidly. I have fun changing the stories up. I'll say the mouse will ask for a glass of water and my daughter will correct me. They are great for early reading skills and memory. If You Give A Pig A Party is her other favorite after mouse cookie which we purchased separately. This is the one my daughter usually asks for before bed. She'll snuggle up with the book, we put the CD on and it winds her down. The Cd lasts approximately 30 minutes. Ihighly reccomend this series for beginning readers.
Having already read and bought most of the If You Give a Mouse series I wasn't too keen to aquire the latest compilation until I heard the cd. I absolutely love the 3rd (I believe) track in which the children have a chance to test their listening skills. My 5 1/2 year old daughter loves the Piggy Polka and really enjoys paging thru the book with the cd. It reminds me of when I was kid paging thru the Jungle Book while listening enraptured to the record. Each reading and song is beautifully rendered. As a storyteller, I will be using this soon for storytime as the cd is a wonderful enhancement for some of the Laura Joffe Numeroff's best tales with those lovely, endearing illustrations.
My four-year-old loves the series of book and adores this book!Contains four stories and several songs, recipes and activities. The books in it are "If you give a mouse a cookie" "If you take a mouse to school" "If you give a pig a pancake" and "If you give a moose a muffin".
Like the other 2 star reviewers for this book our copy has completely fallen apart as well. My daughter loves this book and is so sad that it's completely in pieces. I really loved this book for the songs, recipes and the CD to listen to it in the car but there has got to be a better way to bind it. We have plenty of other books that don't have this problem. If they would fix the binding I'd buy a replacement copy in a heartbeat. Otherwise, I guess I'll just buy each book individually. Bummer!**UPDATE: 8/26/2011**I ended up buying another copy of this same book because it was so much more to buy each story individually. Thankfully, this copy has lasted us much longer. I have noticed maybe one page is starting to look lose so I may tape it before it falls out completely but this copy seems to be in better shape than our last one. The binding seems to be the same but maybe I just had a dud before or something. I'm glad we decided to get another copy.
My son won this book from our local library--he was so excited. All his favorite books in one place! And the songs on the CD are fun and catchy.(albeit slightly annoying for me). He had enjoyed it less than two months when it started to fall apart. The binding on this book (224 pages) is completely inadequate. It is not stitched together, it is "perfect bound" an (oxy-moron if there ever was one) where each page is individually glued into the adhesive. Our book is now in complete pieces--but my son can't bear to throw it away, and I am reluctant to replace it only to have another one fall apart. I recommend looking for a better binding, if available, or buying the books separately.
I came across this book while looking for a gift for my neice. I've heard the "Give a mouse..." saying a thousand times, but had never read the book. What a treat.I didn't get to check out the CD, but the book alone is worth the price. The recipies and activities are simple and would be something fun to do with your kid.This is a book you can enjoy reading to them as much as they enjoy hearing it -- the illustrations are cute and have lots of hidden details to notice.
My 2 year old daughter loves this book, so do her parents! The stories are fun and the illustrations are superior. The CD has all 4 stories and several nice songs, some of them quite funny. My daughter loves to have us read the book to her and even tries to "read" it herself.The quality of the book itself is very good, nice price and sturdy. I am sure our family will enjoy it for several more years.
This has A LOT of supplemental material and is a big book. It would be great for a teacher. Not ideal for my kids, who were overwhelmed. They prefer smaller books they can carry around. I returned it and bought the three main stories separately.
