I am a multi-age 4th grade/ 5th grade teacher. I have read aloud THREE TERRIBLE TRINS (the little mice that sing on the corner of the screen in the movie BABE) to several of my classes. They love it! It reads easily and quickly and really holds the audience's interest. I have shared this book with teachers of younger grades as well, and their classes have loved the book! I highly recommend it!

Three mice (trins) make the life of a mouse that lives with a cat seem fun. Their Mom tells them to be careful, but they make everything fun. One time they almost get caught by the cat. They discover a glass eyeball and play games. Will they get caught or get away with it? Read this witty book to find out!

This story was a great book to read. It is easy to follow and understand. It deals with friendships, getting along with simblings and others, and, of course, annoying a cat. This story will strike anyone's imagination and, hopefully teach everyone a lesson who reads this book.

The Three Terrible Trins was an excellent book. I liked it so much that I read it twice already. The mice had to work hard and plan a lot of schemes so that their friends and themselves would never again have to face the cats prowling around. I loved the book and highly recommend it.

In this book three little trins (triplets in mice language) were born from the widow, Mrs. Gray. But Mrs. Gray brainwashes them to become the strongest mice around. They try to outwit two cats....Will this be the last of the trins?

Read this book and find out!

I like this book from the very first page.Mrs. Gray,a widow has given birth to 20 mice.Wow! That's a lot.From her first husband,Mr. Brown,7 and from the next one,Mr. Black,10 more and her deceased husband,3.The rest of her children have left their home and are out earning their living.Mrs. Gray teaches her three trins(triplets actually),Henry,Richard and Thomas to be the toughest mice in the house.In the house,the mice are divided into 4 tribes,the Attic(which is at the very top of the house),the Ups(just below),the Downs and the Cellarmice.These 4 clans never gather together and unite.The Terrible Trins(that's what Mrs. Gray calls them)learn a lot of stuff from their mother.She teaches them that unity is strength.The Terrible Trins manage to get rid of the two cats in the house and make the farmer,Farmer Budge goes angry with everything he sees.On the contrary his wife likes all living creatures including mice.When the farmer is not around,she will spring the mouse traps and throw away the poison.But that is not enough.A lot of mice still get trapped.Will The Terrible Trins be able to get rid of the poison and mouse traps and show Farmer Budge that mice aren't as bad as he thinks? I really love this book.It is so exciting,enthralling and lovable.I bet you will rate this one of the best animal book in the world.

Every mouse wife has a man,but Miss.Gary had one.But then he dead of a mousetrap,the next one dead of a cat,the last one dead of poison! Miss.Gray also had three children and she swore that the trins, the three children, will destroy the famer and the cats.

One day Kevin, an outside mouse,was token into the house,but he got away! The trins then found him and toke him to their home. there he saw Miss.Gray.

So if you want to now what happens nexts read The Terreible Trins.
