If You Take a Mouse to School

If You Take a Mouse to School, written by Laura Numeroff, is a fun story about a mouse who wants to go to school with you! The book tells you, the reader, what exactly a mouse would want if they were to take him to school. It begins by letting you know that "If you take a mouse to school, he'll ask for your lunchbox. When you give him your lunchbox, he'll want a sandwich-and a snack for later." The author continues on about what a mouse would need if you took him to school, which includes a notebook, pencils, and even your backpack to share. The mouse has a lot of fun at school and does some great work throughout the day. When you are ready to go home the mouse has forgotten something very important in the classroom. Something that he must go back for.
This book is a great book in a series of these fun stories. I would recommend this book to be read in class to younger students, and it would be fun to have them write a short story about what would happen if they took a certain animal to school. This would be a fun and engaging story and activity. If you haven't read this book or others in the series I highly recommend checking those books out too.
