From the Publisher:
Spiders: Little Mouse is afraid of them (arachnophobia). Shadows: Little Mouse is afraid of those (sciaphobia). In fact, Little Mouse is afraid of everything. Join her as she faces her fears and records them in her journal - and discovers that even the biggest people are afraid of some things. |
Annotation:
Wildly creative and excitingly illustrated with mixed media artwork, Emily Gravett's book about the plagues of childhood fears, both real and made-up, is all about Little Mouse's many, many phobias. The dark? Check. Getting lost? Check. Little Mouse even explores the Isle of Fright. Creating art to fight fear is the key in this story, and Gravett includes space for reader-made art. The book is packed with references to all sorts of nursery rhymes and stories.

Praise
"Whether or not they choose to face their own fears, kids will feel that a chord has been struck--and they'll savor spicing up their budding vocabularies."
8/4/2008
"Creative multimedia artwork with a frenetic vibe includes collage, foldouts (maps, newspapers), cutouts (nibbled page corners abound) and expressive and aptly wild pencil strokes."
