Summary:

This is a book about what happens when you give a moose a muffin. One thing leads to another and suddenly what was a little thing like giving a moose a simple muffin turns into a bunch of jam, a moose wearing your sweater, making puppets, painting, cleaning up paint with a sheet, and then back to wanting a muffin again! All this happens before the boy's mom comes in the house.

Who benefits from reading this book?

Anyone who enjoys these kind of books will benefit from reading this. "If You Give a Mouse A Cookie" was the first one, then came more, including this one.

What conflicts/problems could this book potentially cause?

I don't see any problems that could arise from reading this book. It seems like a pretty harmless children's picture book to me.

My Reaction:

I really liked this book. It's one of my favorites. I really liked, "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie", and this is basically the same kind of thing. I like how one thing leads to the next, and it all leads back to the beginning with the muffin.
