I bought this because I wanted to see what a children's "picture book" looked like on Kindle, but was pleasantly surprised by the story. Great job!

5.0 out of 5 stars An educating story June 18, 2012
By AyeshaF
Format:Paperback
This is an interesting and absorbing story; my child was was amused by the clever tricks played by the mouse brothers and was eager to know what happens in the end!

What I liked about this story was that it has a deep underlying message in it- something I discussed with my 5-year old after reading the book to him. That is, life may not always be fair, but if friends stick together during hard times, they can together win over any situation.

Everyone is born with a unique special power and when these powers combine, it is manifested as the power of unity that can not be defied.. Some food for thought for the young mind!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Family Should Stick Together! April 20, 2012
By D. Belle
Format:Kindle Edition
This was an excellent publication to present a loved ones that they ought to stick together.

I'm very pleased by having the little writer of this publication.

Taking into account that her very first account was really a former homework project. Her papa identified it and assumed that it was rather really good, and he began investigating exactly how to self-publish, and it came to be a summer time venture, so I am impressed with the quality of her books.

The sketches in this publication was incredibly great, too. I got this because I desired to see firsthand exactly what a youngsters's "picture publication" really looked like on the Kindle Gadget, but I was extremely pleasantly shocked by the storyline that the book had in it.

I learnt that she's operating on a brand-new publication about an outerspace cop superhero. It's primarily a playful, lightweight take of comics like Green Lantern or the Nova Corps.

That being said, my family really likes to read FUNNY childrens books about animals. Have you spotted the White Squirrel? (Rare Animale Series)

Fun story too. Subject matter is a bit morbid for toddlers. Cliffhanger leaves you curious about next chapter of the story.
