"Mistaken mice get their reward in a brie-illiant story"

View All Editions (1)
There’s a party going on in the big house, and the mice in the little house (door in the skirting board) are very excited. They’ve heard the instruction to the guests to, ‘Say cheese!’ but where is it? At first it seems there’s not even a whiff or a sniff of it, not a slice or a sliver.
But don’t worry, there’s twist in the tale and a happy, cheesy ending for all. Little children will identify with the mice and with their misunderstandings, and recognise their low-level point of view too, while the text is full of repetition to encourage less confident readers. It all makes for a very tasty story, with no reason for anyone to feel cheesed-off.
It's time for a P-A-R-T-Y and you're invited! Join the fun with photos, presents, party foods and some special surprise guests in this enjoyable and engaging story. Set at a birthday party, the word ‘cheese’ brings the mischievous mice out of their hiding hole, and the repetition of this word reinforces engagement and will appeal to families of less confident readers.
