5.0 out of 5 stars Mouse Tales by Arnold Lobel July 21, 2001

By Wendy M. Lowry

Format:Paperback

Mouse Tales has long been a family favorite. Now that I have my own son, he has two copies...my ragged paperback from when I was a child, and a hardback French-language version. The best story in our opinion has always been about the mouse who goes to visit his mother, and ends up buying new feet from a vendor at the side of the road, since his own were worn out. To this day whenever someone in our family gets a suntan above their socks, we tell them what nice new feet they have, just like the mouse's mother in the story. Definitely a classic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable and Imaginative! October 14, 2002

By A Customer

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

I love Arnold Lobel. He tends to always use animals to convey morals. Immediately because of the sweet illustrations of animals wearing clothes, kids are delighted. The stories are simple and make great short stories for kids right before they delve into more difficult chapter books. These stories show friendship, manners, respect for differences, and helpfulness. This book is filled with positive stories. The tales show cause and effect relationships or compare and contrast stories. It would be a great book to use in an author study of Arnold Lobel. I highly recommend this book in addition, to all of his great books!

5.0 out of 5 stars Mouse Tales May 15, 2007

By Sarah Sammis

Format:Paperback

There are seven short tales, all involving mice, and bookended by a father mouse who is telling these stories to his children at bed time, one per child. The seven stories included are: The Wishing Well, Clouds, Very Tall Mouse and Very Short Mouse, The Mouse and the Winds, The Journey, The Old Mouse, and The Bath. Of the seven, my favorite is The Wishing Well as it takes an unusual and humorous approach to the usual wishing well story. The most disturbing of the stories is The Journey because it involves replacement feet. Knowing Sean, I think his favorite will be The Bath because of the absurd bath/flood the little mouse creates just to get clean.
