review 1: This book was... okay... I guess. To be honest it barely makes the 2 star mark for me. I really want to say 1 star as in I didn't like it. I've read a lot of children's books and this one does not measure up. I love libraries and books and the idea of this book I think is good and cute (a boy with writers block gets an idea for a story and then a mouse illustrates it for him) - but the actual story did not turn out as good or cute as the idea. I wasn't that impressed. Even the illustrations were poorly lacking. I don't know how much this book normally is - but I wouldn't be surprised if it's on the clearance shelf - that's the type of book it reminds me of. One you might pay $1 - $2 for. Although I still wouldn't pay that much for it.
review 2: Sam is a library
... more mouse that lives in a hole in the wall in the children’s reference books. Sam loves to write and draw anything and everything that sparks his interest. Even the children love to read his little books that he leaves on the shelves of the library. However, Sam is very shy and has never been seen until now by a boy named Tom. But when the library’s Writers and Illustrators Club is given an assignment to work with partners, Tom is left all by himself. Then he finds out Sam’s secret identity and is reluctant to have a chance to work with him. But how will he keep everyone from finding out? This a great story for any beginner writer or child that wants to write. This is a great way to show students how to find inspiration and build a friendship. Just read this book a loud to the class room and then have students partner up and create their own stories. less
