If you give a mouse a cookie is a book that everyone read at least one time, its a really good book for children . I like it so much. The repetion , rhyming are good strategies for childs to understand what they read, and the pictures too. This first story of "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" ended up as such as hit that it spawned numerous more books that expanded from the mouse to include the characters of a moose, a cat, and a pig.
