From School Library Journal
PreS–Cousins takes youngsters on an excursion to the bottom of the ocean where cheerful Little Fish greets a wide variety of friends. Playful rhymes such as Hello spotty fish,/stripy fish,/happy fish,/gripy fish add to the merriment. Finally, Little Fish meets none other than his own mother with Kiss, kiss, kiss,/hooray for fish! The various creatures include fish with numbers for gills and with strange shapes and sizes. The deep blue backgrounds change hue throughout the pages much as the sea changes colors at different depths and climates. Team this appealing oversize book with Dr. Seuss's One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish (Random, 1960), Robert Kalan's Blue Sea (HarperCollins, 1992), and Nancy Van Laan's Little Fish, Lost (S & S, 1998) for a swimming good time.–Bina Williams,...

PreSchool-Grade 1-These lift-the-flap, pull-the-tab books featuring the lovable mouse will surely fly off shelves. Happy Birthday shows Maisy on her special day, receiving cards (note: an envelope opens to reveal a small loose card), dressing for a party, playing games, and enjoying cake. Maisy at the Farm sets the mouse in motion as she rides a horse, drives a tractor, cleans the pigsty, and feeds baby lambs (the milk level in the bottle goes down with the pull of a tab). In both titles, simple illustrations done in primary colors with heavy black outlines add to the appeal.

Book Review
From good morning to good night, Maisy the mouse helps preschoolers learn to tell time. At 8 o'clock, Maisy wakes up and brushes her teeth. At 10 o'clock she grocery shops. Two o'clock finds this perky pink-eared rodent playing in the park. But how does Maisy stick to this rigorous schedule of fun and food? Learning how to tell time is easy with this big, sturdy board book. A die-cut hole through the entire book reveals a colorful pretend clock. Readers move the hands of the clock, which turn gears behind a clear plastic window. A simple printed clock (dots and two "hands") is placed as a hint near the interactive clock, while carefully labeled objects of Maisy's day--"overalls," "sandwiches," "rubber duck"--help expand vocabulary. Lucy Cousins's signature style features heavy black lettering on vibrantly hued...

From School Library Journal
PreS - Two more titles starring the appealing mouse and her pals. The first is an inventive look at the various ways in which the creatures get from here to there. Ample picture clues are offered to help youngsters guess the modes of travel. The second book presents small quizzes about the friends' homes. The boldly outlined illustrations are perfectly matched with the very basic texts. Though both books will have a short shelf life due to the "lift-the-flap" format, they are bright and cheery additions. - Andrea Tarr, Corona Public Library, CA Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.

Book Review
Maisy the mouse and her friends Cyril, Charley, and Tallulah have a busy day of gardening, painting pictures, cleaning the playroom, and romping at the playground. Young readers can lift the flaps--all 36 of 'em--to learn about numbers, colors, shapes, and opposites as the pals go about their day. What objects in the playroom match the shapes on the flaps? What color completes the pictures of carrots, whales, and grasshoppers? The oh-so-cute Maisy is a huge favorite with children, who watch her on TV and read about her in Where Does Maisy Live?, Maisy Goes to Bed, Count with Maisy, and many more titles by award-winning artist Lucy Cousins. Vibrant colors and bold black outlines set the tone for this cheery, interactive book about everyone's favorite mouse. (Baby to preschool) --Emilie Coulter
