If You Give A Mouse a Cookie
Written by : Laura Joffe Numeroff Illustrated by: Felicia Bond Preschool – Language Arts
If you give a mouse a cookie,
When you give him the milk, he’ll probably ask you for a straw.
When he’s finished, he’ll ask for a napkin.
When he looks into the mirror, he might notice his hair needs a trim. So he will probably ask for a pair of nail scissors.
When he’s finished giving himself a trim, he’ll want a broom to sweep up. He’ll start sweeping. He might get carried away and sweep every room in the house. He may even end up washing the floors as well!
He’ll probably ask you to read him a story. So you’ll read him one from one of your books, and he’ll ask to see the pictures. When he looks at the pictures, he’ll get so excited he’ll want to draw one of his own. He’ll ask for paper and crayons.
He’ll draw a picture. When the
picture is finished, he’ll want to
sign his name with a pen.
He’ll hang up his drawing and stand back to look at it. Looking at the refrigerator will remind him that he’s thirsty so…he’ll ask for a glass of milk.
And chances are if he asks for a glass of milk, he’s going to want a cookie to go with it.
