“Absurd,” Said Bird : A Fun Children’s Adventure About a Mouse Who Dreams of Travel (Mouse Traveler) by Tricia Gardella – Review by Candice Estes

“ABSURD,” SAID BIRD.: A mouse plans a trip to the moon. by Tricia Gardella
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Mouse wants to go to the moon, because he believes it is made of cheese. Most of his friends seem to be supportive of his plan to build an airplane to fly to the moon, and ask him questions about his planned trip. That is, other than, Bird. Bird says that the whole plan is absurd and that it won’t work. Mouse thinks he is wrong, and decides to try it anyway. When his initial plan doesn’t work, Bird explains why he had said the plan was absurd to begin with. The story is cute, with rhyming and a fun and silly storyline. The illustrations are colorful and eye-catching, which is great for a younger audience.
