If You Give A Mouse A Cookie.........


One of our all time favorite childrens book is "If You Give A Mouse A Cookie" by Laura Joffe Numeroff and is illustrated by Felicia Bond. It is a sweet little story about a little boy that gives a mouse a cookie and the cause and effect that takes place afterwards.This is one of my favorite illustrations. This is a true depiction of milk and cookies contentment. Love his little pooched out belly.










This author also has some other great books similar to this story. "If You Give A Pig A Pancake", "If You Take A Mouse To School", and "If You Give A Moose A Muffin".


I stumbled upon this little companion book at our local library's used book sale for $.10.

We decided to give one of the recipes a try.The look of anticipation!

"Lily's M&M Crunchies" definitely get our vote for yummy goodness. They are certainly crunchy with the M&Ms and rice crispy cereal. This was a great way for us to spend our day together on a day with snow and rain blowing around outside in the cold wind. Nice and cozy warm in the house eating milk and cookies.
