This is a story of a cute little mouse who thinks he's having a terrible day, only to find out in the end that "it could have been worse." What a great reminder to us all that we need to count our blessings and be thankful for even the little mishaps along life's path. They may be saving us from a much worse fate.

Great for adults as well as kids

My 3 year old son loves this book because of the silly things that almost happen to the mouse. I love the book because it helps me put things into perspective in my own life. Just as the mouse is complaining about his minor problem, you see the danger that he narrowly escaped, and yes, it could have been a lot worse. I buy this book as a gift, more for the parents than for the kids.
