Red House, Tree House, Little Bitty Brown Mouse Summary

Red House, Tree House, Little Bitty Brown Mouse by Jane Godwin

A bit Each Peach Pear Plum, a bit Go, Dog, Go!, this read-aloud joy is deceptively simple yet packed with delights for the very young--a preschool standout deserving of modern-classic status.

A little mouse makes her way around the world, and invites preschoolers along as she sets out: Red house / Blue house / Green house / Tree house! / See the tiny mouse in her little brown house? Seamless, simple, and inspiring, the rhyming story abounds in concepts for the very young, with a particular focus on colors, and a delightful search-and-find element on every spread--the intrepid mouse herself!

Red House, Tree House, Little Bitty Brown Mouse Reviews

A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year
A Horn Book Fanfare Best Book of the Year

Preschoolers can follow a little brown mouse on its traveling adventures in this engaging color concept book. . . . A wonderful read-aloud . . . Clean-lined, colorful . . . Myriad delightful details . . . The people depicted are diverse both racially as well as in physical ability. Delightful and engaging. -Kirkus (starred review)

Jaunty and interactive . . . A cheerful there-and-back-again adventure-that's also an excellent color-concept book-perfectly aimed at the very youngest. -The Horn Book (starred review)

Once the book has been read a few times and the mouse found, flip to the end pages for a new game. Match the patches on the endpapers with the related story images throughout the book. Verdict: A fun concept book for the very young with a seek-and-find element for slightly older, more savvy readers. -School Library Journal

The book calls for engagement on multiple levels: conveying basic concepts of color and counting (Can you count the petals/ in the garden bed?), building language skills in the rhymes, and playing seek-and-find for the mouse on each spread. Even the travel patch-dotted endpapers spark activity. . . . Appealing [and] educational. -Publishers Weekly
