Brief Summary: A boy sees a mouse running through his living room. He is amused by the mouse as he intently watches it run across the room. He notices that the mouse is hungry and begins to fear for the mouse. The mouse is able to grab the cheese and escape from the trap. The boy is excited and very happy that the mouse is able to go free.
How it would be used in a classroom setting: I would use this book for younger students. I think it would be good to introduce vocabulary and poetry just because it uses a lot of rhyme and onomatopoeia.
