Under 5s Pre-School/Nursery/Infant
Emily lives in a perfect house except for a creaking door and a squeaky mouse. The solution is obvious to the mouse: all she has to do is get more and more animals, each to cloak the sound of the one before! The charm of Niko Scharer's cumulative poem is matched perfectly by the detail of Joanne Fitzgerald's illustrations. A book to come back to again and again!
