Laura Numeroff's If You Give A Moose A Muffin portrays the chain events that will develop if you offer a moose a simple gift. The one favor will turn into a million, and you will have a situation with a demanding houseguest that will never cease. The hilarious illustrations and characters unique to Numeroff's stories will make both you and your child a big fan.
The illustrations in the book capture the chaos of the situation and will hold the attention of your little reader. The book also demonstrates the importance of being a good host, even if your guest has a list of increasingly ridiculous demands. The large size of the book will allow your child to engage more fully with both the story and pictures.
This book was incredibly entertaining for my nephew, Michael, when we read it together. As the story moved along and got more outlandish, he was even more engaged in the action of the tale. He also got tired from laughing so much, particularly at the part where the moose makes sock puppets. Scenes like that one are certain to captivate your child's interest.
