If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Joffe Numeroff (1985)



This is a great book that tells a story in a unique way about chain reactions. If you give a mouse a cookie, then what will he ask for next? It also shows how any simple action can lead to many other requests, consequences, or actions. The illustraions are very good, and take you through the story, and important to the telling of the story.

This book could be used in a classroom for younger grades. This book could be used for small reading groups to be read aloud together and then discussed. It is a cute book that many children would find enjoyable. It can teach them chain reactions, and even how to treat guests in your home.
