review 1: This charming story is about a mouse who wants to sing her song, but her parents didn’t want her to wake the babies. Eventually Penny got to sing her song when everyone was awake and the song put the babies to sleep. Like all of Kevin Henks books, this story makes a delightful use of humorous language. Not only would young readers love this story but adults would also get a kick from this charming story.This story shows great family dynamics. Using this story is also a clever way to teach children about being respectful of others and showing children the value of patience. Since Penny was not allowed to sing her song until the babies were awake. Finally the babies were awake and she was able to sing her song which everyone enjoyed. Also teaches children that good things ... morecome to those who wait. Not only was this a beautiful story but the illustrations are also marvelous, great use of colors, and my favorite part is the expressions reflected in each character. Love this story!
review 2: A charming start to a new series of easy readers with chapters starring Penny, a young mouse, and her family. In this first outing, Penny has a song that she would like to share with her family, but she must wait for the proper time. The design is varied with spot illustrations on some pages and full page boxed illustrations on others. The illustrations are classic Henkes with lots of pastels and fun details like the drawings on Penny's bedroom walls and her glass animal menagerie. less
