I chose this book because it was just a funny and
cute picture book. The book is about a mouse, which Grandmouse comes to visit
and leave. She misses her so much; she writes a letter to tell her the different
events going on since she left. She writes about the blackout, grab the cat
whisker, and her brother bothering her. As she writes the letter, she includes
drawings, maps, and photos to share with her Grandmouse.
The illustrations in the book are very brilliant.
The illustrator use watercolors, crayons, stencils, and pencil. The illustrations
are meant to interpret the mouse drawings that are done in crayons. The text
is written in crayon and certain words are written differently to show meaning.
The book is in a letter and landscape style layout.
This book is recommended for kindergarten through second grade to show them
how to write a letter. I feel this book would be a great tool for early
literacy skill writing, to show the students how she writes just like them. This
books it really good for character education showing the respect she has for her Grandmouse. This book does not have any awards.
