4.0 out of 5 stars Great concept, but a little too cute. January 8, 2005
Format:Hardcover
As a teacher, I love the way they presented the concept of how a bill becomes a law. However, as a mother, I find it becomes confusing for a preschooler when you use terms such as "Squeaker" of the House instead of "Speaker" and "Mouse-jority" Leader. A great book, definitely worth the buy, but if your child can't read yet, use the real terminology to avoid confusion.

5.0 out of 5 stars My sons favorate book August 19, 2002
Format:Hardcover
This is a cute book that was very well written. My son likes the mouse story and giggles every time I read it to him. It features "The Senate Mousejority leader and the Sqeaker of the House". Parents that are in to politics will get a good laugh out of reading this one.
