my boys 7,9 and 12, are not strong readers they would rather play than read as i'm sure most kids are LOL... but the Baby mouse series when the book came in the mail it was a fight for the book and they sat on the couch and read it till the end!Baby mouse goes on some quite crazy adventures and she took my boys with her. I recommend this book as well it got my boys reading!
The Babymouse books were ordered for my 10 year old daughter. Other than some manga-style comic series (Kitchen Princess for one) she hasn't been much interested in comics. She really enjoys the saucy/sassy girl power type humor of Babymouse. I would rate them a three but she wanted a five rating because she considers them extra fun because she can color them in like a coloring book too. :)
If you are searching for an age appropriate graphic novel for little girls. (My daughter is eight) Then look no further, Baby Mouse will keep her entertained over and over. I have even caught my husband and twelve year old son thumbing through them! I don't think she likes one better than the other. She really just wants to collect them all!!
My girls love Diary of a Wimpy Kid, but it was too hard for many of them. When searching, this book was considered similar to Diary of Wimpy Kid and it's at a second grade level. My girls love this series and are asking for more!
My daughter (8 years old, 2nd grade) absolutely ADORES these books. Easy to read and she always finds them engaging. She reads well above her reading level so these are not challenge for her at all but they still remain her favorite books to get.
Camp Baby Mouse. Babymouse's mom told Babymouse she is going to camp. Babymouse got excited when she got to camp. She went to her cabin and there were people in the cabin. The teacher said that she is going to do competitions and who ever wins gets a trophy. Who ever loses gets to wash the dishes, so babymouse's team lost and babymouse had to wash the dishes all by her self. There were a lot of dishes. This book is by Jennifer L. Holm.
It is nice to have a book that is just fun to read and does not insult intelligence with repetitive text. I highly doubt that any kid will learn to read with Babymouse but they might just learn to love reading. Most teachers poo poo graphic novel format but with 25% of the population as visual picture thinkers and that is increasing it is time to put them on the shelf with pride. Any 1st grader can pick up this book up and enjoy it. Most readers for this age level and reading level are just plain boring. This is a nice change of pace. Just make sure when your big kid steels it to read it they give it back.
Daughter wasn't a big reader when she was younger and these books were PERFECT to grab her attention. Calvin and Hobbes great too! Love Baby Mouse!!
