Merry Christmas, Mouse!: A Christmas Holiday Book for Kids (If You Give...) Reviews


  • Rossy

    I expected a lot more, since the other "Mouse" books I've read by this author were so great, but instead I got Mouse counting from 1 to 10 :( Meh.

  • Bonnie Tesch

    Andrew is very excited by the "rocket ships" page, and still not very good at counting.

  • Kaitlyn (ktxx22) Walker

    This is a very cute counting book! Since my son was born on Christmas Eve I look forward to him enjoying this book for many years!

  • Angie

    Synopsis: "Join Mouse from "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" as he decorates his Christmas tree in a holiday counting adventure."

    My Review: This is a very simple book for the holiday season. Mouse is decorating his tree and counts the different types of ornaments he is adding to the tree. There really isn't a story line more of just a counting book which may be a little too brief for older children but possibly a good one for those just learning to read on their own. Still love the classic If You Give a Mouse a Cookie illustration style.

    The mouse from
    If You Give a Mouse a Cookie decorates his Christmas tree, teaching counting 1 to 10.

    Mouse counts up from 1 to 10 as he hangs Christmas ornaments on the tree. Both the numeral and the written word for each number are given.

    I felt like the robot and rocket ornaments were a nod to cartoon episode "Max and Ruby's Christmas Tree" in which Max wants to hang his toys on the Christmas tree.

  • Kathryn

    This is really just an extremely basic counting book. Mouse only appears on a few pages and the rest of the pages simply show a tree with increasing numbers and styles of ornaments. Perhaps little ones who want everything “Mouse” will enjoy it (though I know I would have felt disappointed not to see him on every page) but I think that there are far better Christmas board books and counting books out there.

    The Give a Mouse a Cookie Mouse is back in this holiday themed counting board book. Mouse begins the process of decorating his tree. Each page shows the ornament and number added up to ten before a funny conclusion. Easy to engage young readers who will grab on to this predictable counting text,

    I expected more to it. It is probably only good for toddlers. --Sagan (6)

  • Sarah

    Christmas-themed counting book. Usual cute pictures from this series.

  • Casandria

    A simple Christmas counting book. Great for toddler storytime!

  • Matthew S. Zielinski

    My 7 year old got to read this book to his little brother while I made him add the numbers from every page. It was great to test math skills and reading skills.

  • Jessica

    I thought this was super cute counting book but there wasn’t enough illustrations/details. It had a lot of blank space on each page.

  • Elizabeth

    This book would work excellently with a matching felt board!

  • Gail

    Mouse counts

  • Mafalda  Farioli

    Bello. A parte l’errore grammaticale sul reindeer. Si dice Raindeers! Per il resto carina e molto educativa

  • Sarah


    I can see myself using this for a lesson plan. This is a cute board book to read during Christmas.

  • Alicia Evans

    For: Christmas/Mouse fans; readers looking for a Christmas counting book.

    Possible red flags: readers may find it too simple or removed from the other Mouse books.

  • Rubi

    This is just a number count book. Mouse decorates the Christmas tree from 1-10 the to 100. I think it would have been cuter if it was more a 12 days of Christmas style, but that's just me haha

  • Valleri

    A quick read with a humorous ending: the mouse kept us entertained with his decorating antics.

  • Suzanne Lorraine Kunz Williams

    A fun little counting book. I love how it started with traditional Christmas ornaments and my little one loved that it branched out to ornaments more fun for boys.

    A nice counting book, but I didn’t think the illustrations were very good.

  • Brendan

    Fun ending!
