A gorgeous book with beautiful, warm illustrations. A must have for any animal lover. The storyline is lovely about a small mouse in search for a big adventure to find the biggest creature in the world. As the mouse sets off in search, he meets many other creatures with each one getter larger who also join the little mouse to discover the biggest creature in the world. A big hit with my 5 year old and a keeper too.

The book continues through the journey and the pair meet many animals along the way, all increasing in size but still they have not found this biggest animal in the world!

They meet a polar bear - surely they have finally found the biggest creature in the world? But no, the polar bear tells them that he is on his way to see the biggest creature and it lives in the ocean. They all follow the bear to the ocean and they all stare and watch in awe as the biggest creature jumps out of the ocean. Its a whale! A lovely book that educates children on the different animals they can find in the animal kingdom.

I would say this book is suitable for children in key stage 1 and lower key stage 2. Colored pencil illustrations make this book stand out since the animals and their habitat are drawn in such a vivid way. I could spend hours gazing at the drawings, which cover two pages for each scene. The story itself involves a mouse who sets off on a big adventure in search of the world's biggest animal.

Some readers will already guess what it is, but others will wonder if the mouse has found it as she meets up with increasingly large creatures, including a frog, a kingfisher, a cat, and an otter, among others. What is sweetly appealing is how each animal knows there is something larger than it is and denies being what the mouse is seeking. It's sweet to see the animals joining the mouse and setting forth on their quest.

For me, the ending was not particularly surprising but the beauty of the animals made the journey worthwhile.

The mouse is very welcoming and inspires the others to go on an adventure as well.

Lovely picture book about a tiny mouse who wants to see the biggest creature in the world. As she heads out, she invites progressively larger creatures to join her.

Children will learn the names of new animals as they listen. The soft, gentle colors in the artwork are gorgeous. The text's gentle rhythm and repetition will help lull young children to sleep.

Nov 04, E rated it it was amazing Shelves: picturebooks , childrens. My only complaint is that the whale, as depicted, appears to be a humpback, which is not "the biggest creature. Even very young children deserve accuracy! This is a sweet book for ECE readers. It contains animals, adventure, and lots of repetition. However, the story starts to feel long after the first few animals have entered into the adventure. Oct 26, Lynn rated it it was ok Shelves: xchickadee , juvenile-picture-book.

The ending won't be as much of a surprise to many readers as it was to the animals in the book as most youngsters know that the whale is the largest animal. Soft but colorful illustrations bring in the reader, and do a fair job of showing the perspective sizes.

May 26, Jody Ellis rated it it was amazing. What an absolute delight. The illustrations were mesmerising and pulled you in. The detail was minute and we spent time exploring each scene for ladybugs and more. The story told with simplicity but captivating.
