There Is A Mouse In My House (Hardback) Ross Collins

The bear is back, but now a little mouse has made himself comfortable in the bear's home. Ross Collins reverses the situation from There's a Bear on My Chair, giving the larger character a taste of an unwelcome intrusion. The rhyming complaints and expressive pictures make the dispute funny while opening conversations about sharing space, considering others and recognising when the tables have turned.

Age suitability and learning: Preschool (3-5), Primary (6-8). Rhythm and repeated language help younger listeners join in, while primary readers can explore the words and pictures more closely. Reading aloud supports listening, sound awareness and expressive speech; following the story encourages recall and talking about what happens next.
