Stein, David Ezra. Love, Mouserella, 32 pgs. Nancy Paulsen Books, 2011. $15.99.
Inside cover: “This is my letter I wrote to Grandmouse because I miss her. She went back to the country and I’m in the city. Mama said why don’t I write her a letter, so I did. I drew pictures too. I’m about to mail it, but you can read it first. Just don’t tell Grandmouse it’s coming, ‘cause it’s a surprise. OK? Promise? Good! P.S. I took all the photos. P.P.S. Maybe you could write a letter to someone you love too?”
We loved this book! We liked how the book reads top to bottom, like a real letter. We enjoyed the drawings, the humor, and the tenderness in the relationship between Mouserella and her Grandmouse. This book could be used in a unit on families, grandparents, letter writing, and feelings or emotions.
Pre-K. EL (K-3). ESSENTIAL. Reviewer: SL.
