Sticky-gooey, jam to spread with peanut butter smeared on bread. Nighttime is snack time for a mischievous mouse, whose colorful antics in the kitchen of a human family are a joy to follow. As anyone small in a big people's world can tell you, some mess is inevitable - milk spills, after all, and crackers scatter. Wielding enormous forks and knives is bound to be a difficult task. But Mouse isn't content to merely eat the food he finds: he rakes corn flakes into a pile to jump in, builds a castle out of sugar, and pops the tops off of bottles and jars just for fun. In a climax that will send young readers into fits of laughter, a tired and satiated Mouse refuses to accept the blame for the havoc he's wreaked: "'Who made this awful mess?' asks Mouse. 'These people need to clean their house!'" He takes a bath in a teacup and makes his way to bed, leaving children to imagine the reaction of the family coming downstairs for breakfast. Bursting with exuberance, Mouse Mess is a joyful ode to disorder. Linnea Riley's color-saturated collages were made using paper sponged with watercolor paint, and the resulting images are almost palpably multidimensional. Kids will rejoice in the mouse-sized perspective of the pictures, which refrain from giving a people's-eye view of the kitchen counter until the very end. Sure to entertain, delight, and even - beware - inspire, this gloriously bright picture book will be a favorite for years to come.

What are some of the things that make winter different from spring? Or summer different from fall? In winter, children wear hats and mittens and ride red sleds down snowy hills. They drink hot chocolate from steaming mugs and at night they curl up in bed under a warm winter quilt. In spring, children watch as the grass gets cut and birds fly to their nests of eggs. They wear raincoats when it rains, and on sunny days enjoy picnics in the grass. Under the hot summer sun, children swim at the beach or in a lake. They play baseball and catch a jar full of fireflies. They race to be the first off the school bus in the fall. They see the frost on the grass before the sun is up and dress up for Halloween when the sun goes down. Each of these succinct and familiar images helps young readers understand nature's eternally changing seasons. Louise Borden's descriptions of seasonal clothing and activities are just right for kids and never forget to show the world through their eyes. As depicted by Lillian Hoban, the illustrator of the beloved Frances book series, the children of this book make the most of every season.
