Guide Review - Book Review: I'm Not Moving, Mama

On moving day, Mama packs up Little Mouse's favorite things and as she packs each one, Little Mouse finds a reason not to leave.

This is a great book to read aloud as Little Mouse's constant cry of "But I'm not moving, Mama!,'' makes it repetitive enough that little ones will know what Little Bear will say next.

Interactive and enjoyable.
