Absurd said Bird
By Tricia Gardella
This book is full of bright colourful pictures that I am sure the little ones will love. Mouse is determined to fly to the moon to get some cheese. He tells the other farm animals if they help him build a plane he will bring them each back some cheese. All the animals think it is a clever idea, well except for bird. Bird thinks it is an absurd idea to build a plane. All the other animals help build the plane, take off does not go well for mouse at all. Bird swoops down to rescue mouse and tells him it is an absurd idea to build a plane to fly to the moon. Bird tells mouse he needs a rocket. Mouse thinks this is a clever idea and all the animals scramble for parts to build the rocket. For Bird this is not an absurd idea and leads the way to collect what they need to build their rocket.
