Critics Review
When Albert, a little mouse, and his big sister, Wanda, visit Mousey World, he rejects one ride after another. Not that he’s scared, he insists; he just doesn’t like things that go up and down … or right and left … or through tunnels … and so on. Finally, he agrees to try the Chew Chew Train, which simply goes forward slowly. After a mix-up results in a wild Tail Twister roller coaster, Albert discovers that he loves riding ‘up, down, and all around.’ From the Mouse Math series, this title emphasizes terms such as up, down, right, left, around, and toward by printing the words in bold and using red directional arrows to reinforce their meanings. For parents and teachers wondering how this concept relates to math, a note points out the importance of ‘direction words’ in early math learning. An appended section suggests activities as well as a game and a project to reinforce the lesson. This colorful picture book offers a light, amusing introduction to directional terms. –Booklist Online
