Little Mouse is going outside to play and in no time he is bouncing, nibbling, racing, paddling, splashing, and riding with the other young animals who live on the farm. Little mouse plays with a little sheep, a little dog, a little cow, a little cat, and others playing with each newcomer and hearing them make their quacks, meows, moos, oinks, and other noises. By the end of the day Little Mouse is quite worn out and is ready for a good night’s sleep in his own little bed.
Little children will be fascinated by the beautiful three dimensional clay illustrations that were created for this book. Simple rhymes, a story that gently unfolds, and plenty of animal noises make this a book children will ask for again and again.
