Under 5s Pre-School/Nursery/Infant
When Mouse receives a parcel containing a construction kit, she fails to notice the assembly manual and uses intuition instead. When the resulting ramshackle jalopy totters to a halt, she enlists the aid of a series of friends who all take a similar approach, creating a variety of entertaining but useless vehicles. Shrew solves the problem by following the instructions, and children are enjoined to do the same with the mini model kit built into the endpapers of the book. This is a rhythmically written story, conveying a highly practical message in an amusing way.
