If a big hungry moose comes to visit, you might give him a muffin to make him feel at home. If you give him a muffin, he'll want some jam to go with it. When he's eaten all your muffins, he'll want to go to the store to get some more muffin mix.In this hilarious sequel to IF YOU GIVE A MOUSE A COOKIE, the young host is again run ragged by a surprise guest.



You'd have thought that after all this the little mouse would be exhausted, but he is unstopable and full of ideas to keep him busy through the day! The consequences of giving a cookie to this energetic mouse run the young host ragged, but young readers will come away smiling at the antics that tumble like dominoes through the pages of this delightful picture book.

Taking a mouse to the movies can lead to letting him do other things, such as making a snowman, listening to Christmas carols, and decorating the Christmas tree.
