Summary: Mouse Tales by Arnold Lobel
Review: 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.

Review: mouse tales is a good book. In the story there is a character named tall mouse and small mouse. It is a story about two friends. Also because I like books where each chapter is a new story. So if you want a book with friends try Mouse tales.

Summary: Laugh-Along kind of Book
Review: Mouse Tales is a great book! The pictures wonderfully illustrate everything the book is trying to say for younger kids, and the words are easy enough for begining readers to work their way though it by themselves. It will make children along with adults laugh at every story. Mouse Tales also has seven short stories with in it. If you have a child with a short attention span, you can stop at any story and pick up at the next one and not have to worry about if your child remembers what came before. It is a real good book for begining readers and i would definitly recommend it to anyone.

Summary: My first-grader won't stop reading it
Review: My daughter checked it out from the library and read it eight times in one weekend, including twice to her little sister. Neither one wanted to return it to the library, so they're getting a copy of their own from Santa. The story is about a father mouse who tells seven humorous bedtime stories to his seven sons. Mouse Tales is a perfect bedtime book: kids love the stories, all the little mice are asleep at the end, and it's a quick, easy read for tired grown-ups.

Summary: Mouse Tales by Arnold Lobel
Review: This book is full of fond memories for me. A wishing well that says "Ouch!" and a cloud that turns into a giant cat. What do you do when your suspenders break and everyone makes fun of you? (Bubble gum!) Or when the wind blows your sailboat onto a house? There's a mouse that wears out his last pair of feet--and has to buy new ones--and another who floods the neighborhood taking his bath. Each story touches a part of life: fear, silliness, happiness, friendship.Well told and wonderfully illustrated, here are seven tiny journeys of the soul and hours of enjoyment, whether you're a Very Short Mouse or a Very Tall Mouse.

Summary: Mouse Tales by Arnold Lobel
Review: This isn't one story, but seven. One for every one of the papa mouse's sons as they lay in bed. They are but a few pages, and most all of them aren't very good. This book is best for those ages 2 or 3, through 8 or so.

Summary: Mouse Tales
Review: This was one of my most adored books as a child. The stories are interesting, the pictures adorable, and while a child may get the satisfaction of reading a "whole book", it would not take up a parent's whole night to read. However, at 25, I rediscovered this book and was a bit taken aback at how there really are no "happy endings" to these 7 stories, but rather the stories of the journeys themselves. They should be considered original (Hans Christan Anderson) fairy tales, rather than modern (Disney) ones, and possibly need a parent's explanation.
