This book is a hot mess in a good way. Very cute and I love the pink.
Great book! 10 minute read, funny, cute, includes some sort of lesson- for all ages! I recommend (: Also the illustrations are amazing and the narration interaction is adorable!Babymouse wants to attend a slumber party at Felicia Furrypaws house because everyone who is anyone is going to be there. She goes through a series of obstacles to be invited, but none of her plans get her invited. Last minute, Felicia tells her that she forgot to complete her essay and asks Babymouse for hers, so, desper...
Babymouse the series is really growing on me and I like it more and more. I like this beginning to the story. Babymouse wants to be popular and hang out with the popular girls in school. When she gets her wish, she is bored and not having fun. She figures it out in the end. A quick and fun read. I'm not much a fan of the art, but it tells the story.There are now 20 volumes, so there is plenty to read. Onward.
This book was such a cute book to read, and very easy to follow. It is written in a comic-book manner, and I feel would appease girls and boys. This story that I read is about a cute little mouse named Babymouse. She is kind of critical about her whiskers because they are curly, but she seems like any normal, little girl mouse. She gets to school and sees that the most popular girl in school is having a slumber party. She wants so badly to go, but doesn't get an invite, until Babymouse does som
In a sentence I would say BABYMOUSE is an honest book about the daily life of a sweet sassy mouse who is slowly discovering her values and who she is. “Late again, I see. What was it this time? Locker try to eat you?” The quote you just read is from the one and only BABYMOUSE series, specifically BABYMOUSE QUEEN OF THE WORLD, by Jennifer L. Holm and Matthew Holm. Let me start off by saying these books are so hard to put down, they are too relatable, and so funny. Through the series you follow ma...
SynopsisImaginative and sassy Baby Mouse works hard to earn an invitation to Felicia Furrypaws' slumber party only to discover she prefers the company of her old friend to the popular crowd.ReviewThe cartoon-like graphics and pink and black coloring is sure to appeal to young and preteen girls. The protaganist goes to school, is stuck with curly wiskers and has an annoying little brother. This familiar world is is broken up with wild day dreams where Baby Mouse finds herself fighting a giant squ...
The lesson in this book is do not act like someone you are not because it can get you into trouble
I read this for youth lit. Cute. Very cute. I like how Babymouse has these daydreams in the middle of things. I think they are my favorite part.
So it appears that I am reading Babymouse out of order...oh well...love her just the same.
This is a good comic for younger kids.
I guess I should be honest and state that if this book had not been chosen as one of our monthly reads in the Children's Literature Group for last February (we were discussing two graphic novels), I would NEVER have chosen Jennifer L. Holm's Queen of the World for myself (and no, I will of course also not be bothering with any of the Babymouse sequels either). For while I can to a very small extent appreciate the themes presented in Queen of the World and do enjoy the often clever intertextualit...
I enjoyed this series because of the positive attitude of the characters and how to overcome failure without negative results. I also enjoyed the black and white comic strip style with pink sprinkled throughout all the stories. It adds to the world of BabyMouse and her adventures. I would use this book as a building block for my students to start their passion for reading and to help them establish AR testing if my school requires it. It is a visually stimulating book, so it could also help thos...
This was the first time I read a graphic novel since Captian Underpants and I thought this was witty and hilarious. I love babymouse and her determination to become popular becasue it puts her into some conflicting desicions. this is a good book for kids who feel like they need to 'fit in' when really they are fine how they are. In a comical and clever way Holm teaches readers a lesson of self acceptance. Babymouse's character is definitely one to love because she is so sassy sometimes, which yo...
For my English Lit class for future teachers we had to choose a book series for children to read at least two of. When choosing my series books to read for the class, I was instantly drawn to the Babymouse series by Jennifer L. Holm. To be quite honest, the reason I chose the Babymouse series was because I had already read the first one when it first came out (I must have been eleven at the time). To me, this seems a bit embarrassing because it seems like such an easy read (and yes, it is) and i...
Babymouse has such a boring life. The same thing happens every day. She gets up, fusses with her curly whiskers, fights with her locker that always sticks, and wishes she could be Felicia Furrypaws' friend. Felicia is the most popular girl at school and she won't give Babymouse the time of day.When Felicia starts handing out invitations to a slumber party, Babymouse is determined to do whatever it takes to get one. She knows a sleepover at Felicia's house is going to be the most exciting thing s...
I thought Babymouse was a truly inspirational character to young kids. Sometimes with inspirational characters it can be hard to relate but Holm creates a character who is so relatable I found myself completely intrigued. Not to mention, the creativity put into every page made it impossible for me to put the book down. Baby mouse teaches us life lessons we didn't even know we needed. With that being said, I feel like it was almost to quick of a read for me.... but that's just me. I think this

Graphic novels seem to usually be geared towards boys, so it is great that
