Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review


Babymouse comic created exclusively for Amazon.com Meet Babymouse, a sassy young mouse who dreams of glamour, excitement, adventure, straight whiskers, being queen of the world, and of course, being invited to Felicia Furrypaws's oh-so-exclusive party. Readers will love Babymouse's vivid imagination--an empty locker becomes a black hole that sucks her into space, boring party becomes a Wild West adventure--and the clever illustrations and hilarious storyline of brother-sister team Matthew and Jennifer Holm.

Don't miss the second installment, Babymouse: Our Hero.

Read entire comic


From Booklist

Gr. 4-6. This energetic comic by a brother-sister team (Jennifer's Our Only May Amelia \i0 was a Newbery Honor Book) introduces Babymouse, a young rodent possessed of an admirably gender-bending array of interests and plagued by typical school traumas. The main confrontation takes place on the harrowing battlefield known as the dodgeball court, the site of an earlier trauma for Babymouse. At the end of a furious match, arrogant class idol Felicia Furrypaws (a cat, of course) gets a satisfying comeuppance and Babymouse faces her fears. Free-wheeling pink-toned illustrations admirably catch all the action. Jesse Karp

My niece loved this book. She loved the first book, so we read the second book in the series. Baby mouse teachers her to do scary things even when afraid.

This book is super cute and my 6 year old niece loves to read them. They are big enough for her that it is a challenge but not overwhelming. The inside font is fun and overall a great book to read.

The Babymouse books are delightful, especially for younger readers. However, even my middle school students who had reading challenges enjoyed them. Book series such as Babymouse support reading comprehension as students are familiar with the characters and reading format.

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!
