Summary:
The story begins with a mama mouse and her babies living in a shoe. When the babies grow up and leave her she's unsure what to do now. She is then approached by many different animals asking her if they can stay with her in her shoe. Each time the mama mouse tells each different animal to get a shoe and they can live by here. In the end, all of the animals live in a community of shoes next to the mother mouse. The mama mouse is so busy with all of her new friends in her little town she forgets about the quiet life she once wanted.
Mrs. Garza's Thoughts:
This book is an easy reader for most kindergarten and first grade students. The rhyming text will keep students entertained in this funny little story about how a shoe town was built by a mama mouse who dreamed of taking a hot bath and a long nap after her babies leave her. Students will begin to recognize key characters from other stories that the mother mouse encounters. The illustrations are colorful and keep the reader's attention. Kids will keep guessing who will show up next in this busy "Shoe Town."
