Mouse Loves School by Lauren Thompson is about a little mouse who sneaks into a backpack and ends up in a place he has never been before. He ends up at a school where he reads, colors, paints, plays with shape puzzles, exercises, and finds new friends.
I think this is a good book for beginning readers or young children who are starting school. The reading level of the book is for very emergent readers. This would be a great book for ESL students who are struggling to read or other children who are beginning readers. The words in this book are simple and repetitive so advanced kingertener students and older students will be able to read it on their own. This book would be great to read to children who are new to school. It will make them feel more comfortable being at school and know that it is a safe place. Younger children will be able to relate to the mouse's experience and will enjoy relating it to their own school experiences. Older or more advanced readers may find this book to be boring and to easy. I think this is a great book for emergent readers and children starting school. I would not recommend it for students who are older than second grade who are not having problems reading. I would also recommend this book to ESL students who are still in the emergent or beginning stages of reading.
