Review Little Mouse Gets Ready provides early readers with a simple narrative supported by fun illustrations. Jeff Smith tells of how Little Mouse prepares for a trip with his family, something many children can relate to. Hilarious antics ensure as he tries to get dressed, putting on underwear, buttoning a shirt and lacing his shoes. Darienne Stewart (n.d.) notes that “The surprise ending bowls over Little Mouse -- and readers.” Smith makes an activity that children do everyday into a fun and enjoyable graphic book for readers of all ages.
