Another one in the "My Favorite" books series. Which I love. The picture are of high quality and they are clear. There is a little text, with a great quiz at the end. Just to make sure you understood the book. It is sweet, I read it to my child who doesn't like rodents. She has now decided that they are cute, and she can like them from afar.

Lovely book, wonderful photos, with simple clear text.

I received this book from NetGalley in exchange for me honest review.

My Favorite Pet: Mice by Victoria Marcos has real life photographs of pet mice living their lives as pets in a household. Mice are easy pets to care for but all pets do require special care such as food, water, and a proper habitat to live in. Teaching children proper pet care at an early age is very important and this would be an excellent book to use with smaller children as the short length of the text would hold their attention. Children may also be familiar pet Mice as they are often classroom pets. I highly recommend this book for preschool to second grade.

Photos of the animal in question fill this book, with a little bit of text to go along. They sleep, eat, and clean themselves a lot. Their environment, food preferences, and the like are all shown.
Both the reading and the quizzes are appropriately easy for the target age level. In fact, the quizzes might be too easy.
3.5 pushed up to 4/5

Absolutely adorable! I needed a helping of cuteness and this book provided. Cute non-fiction book about mice for younger children, with gorgeous pictures of mousey adorableness. Highly recommended for little ones who have an affinity for animals and if they have a pet mouse at home.

5, mice are kinda cute (when not home invaders), stars.

My thanks to NetGalley and Xist Publishing for an eARC copy of this book to read and review.

I want to thank NetGalley and Xist Publishing for giving me the opportunity to read this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
I absolutely loved this book. It had some wonderful things to say about mice as pets. The facts were point on and having pictures along with it was fabulous. For once I think it is great that someone is publishing a book that sheds a bright light on owning a mouse as a pet.
They sleep at night, you can train them, they are tremendously clean, and they are friendly.
As a rat owner, these rodents get a bad rap. This book helps break that bad stigma. I will be buying a couple of these books for my grandkids.

My Favourite Pet: Mice by Victoria Marcos teaches kids about keeping mice as pets. Using simple, concise language, children learn how to house and feed a pet mouse, and how mice enjoy playing. I read this with my younger cubs. There isn't much text, but a plethora of adorable pictures. We might have enjoyed this more if the topic were new, but we've kept rats, which I find a better starter pet than mice. They are bigger, and more intelligent. At the end is a glossary and a series of study questions. I think this would be a good book to give kids an overview of mice as pets, and help kids and parents get a feel for these cute critters. Definitely a starting point. If serious about keeping mice, be sure to get some more in-depth information too!

***Many thanks to Netgalley and Xist Publishing for providing a copy in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This has to be one of the cutest picture books ever, as the beautiful photos are of very good quality and really lovely.

There isn't a lot of text on each page, but the children get some basic information, what mice like to eat, that they are nocturnal animals and can run quite a bit of havoc, if they escape their cages.

Small kids will love the pictures and early readers find a glossary with more difficult words at the end of the book.
There are also questions to answer, which will help to engage the wee ones further or show a teacher if the class is listening.

I can image My Favorite Pet: Mice is a good starting point to read, before deciding on a mouse for a pet, but keep in mind, the info provided here is really just basic.
Still, all the major points are made: they like company, eat everything, will rather likely sleep a lot during the day, are acutally also really good swimmers, etc.

It sure is a very nice book about mice.
