This brightly illustrated story teaches teamwork and friendship. Mouse cannot reach the beautiful “marble” hanging from a tree. She asks mole and then rabbit to help her out. The three animal characters’ cheerful attitude as they solve the problem and the surprise ending make this story a fun read aloud for young children. There is a cut out and one fold out “tall” page which is not very durable in the library.

Thanks for the review. Problem solving books are good to read with kids. But you are right about cut outs and fold out pages… not too durable.
Thanks for your review.
Good review…thanks!
I just had someone ask me for books that teach teamwork. I will this to the list. Thanks!
I love the cover of this book. So bright and engaging. Thanks for the review.
Thanks for the review. I’d probably keep this one in the back room because of flaps and fold outs.
