Descripción editorial
A bit Each Peach Pear Plum, a bit Go, Dog, Go!, this read-aloud joy is deceptively simple yet packed with delights for the very young--a preschool standout deserving of modern-classic status.
A little mouse makes her way around the world, and invites preschoolers along as she sets out: Red house / Blue house / Green house / Tree house! / See the tiny mouse in her little brown house? Seamless, simple, and inspiring, the rhyming story abounds in concepts for the very young, with a particular focus on colors, and a delightful search-and-find element on every spread--the intrepid mouse herself!

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
As a "little bitty" suitcase-toting mouse goes on a journey, the reader tags along, engaging in a rhythmic, interactive story. The book calls for engagement on multiple levels: conveying basic concepts of color and counting ("Can you count the petals/ in the garden bed?), building language skills in the rhymes, and playing seek-and-find for the mouse on each spread. Even the travel patch dotted endpapers spark activity: a note tells readers that they can "match the picture in each patch to its related image in the story." Zoomy verse paces the journey and often directs questions at the reader ("Pink shoes/ blue shoes/ green shoes/ red./ Shoes go on your feet./ What goes on your head?"). G mez's sunny and delicate spreads are the star of the show, encouraging readers to pause on elements such as characters in city windows and bric-a-brac in mouse's tree house. An appealing, educational mix of stop and go. Ages 3 5.
