Editorial Reviews

A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year
A Horn Book Fanfare Best Book of the Year

★ 
"Preschoolers can follow a little brown mouse on its traveling adventures in this engaging color concept book. . . . A wonderful read-aloud . . . Clean-lined, colorful . . . Myriad delightful details . . . The people depicted are diverse both racially as well as in physical ability. Delightful and engaging." —Kirkus (starred review)

★ Jaunty and interactive . . . A cheerful there-and-back-again adventure—that’s also an excellent color-concept book—perfectly aimed at the very youngest." —The Horn Book (starred review)

"Once the book has been read a few times and the mouse found, flip to the end pages for a new game. Match the patches on the endpapers with the related story images throughout the book. Verdict: A fun concept book for the very young with a seek-and-find element for slightly older, more savvy readers." —School Library Journal

"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. . . . Appealing [and] educational."  —Publishers Weekly
