Summary of Professional ReviewsHorn Book describes this book as the perennially popular story about a cookie-eating mouse.

My ReviewI find this book to be very humorous in how it is about a little mouse just wanting a cookie, but ends up asking for numerous other items that add to the fun. For example, “If you give a mouse a cookie, then you are going to need to give him milk.” The only thing I picked out that I did not like about the story was that the mouse never said the words, “please” and “thank you.”

This book would be useful when teaching...certain vocabulary words such as “comfortable.” It is also good to teach a lesson on “manners,” because of the fact that there were no “please” and “thank yous” said in the story by the mouse.
