Just Shopping with Mom Author:Mercer Mayer Little Critter is having a ton of trouble with his little sister. When the family goes shopping, his sister pulls groceries off the shelves, finds a way to get lost, and cries when she can't have all the candy in the candy aisle. The day is a disaster -- until Little Critter's mother invents a way to put a smile back on everyone's face.
This book has been one of my kids favorites. Great pictures of shopping in the grocery store with mom. Some of the illustrations could've been my kids and me. Lots of fun with this one.
Mercer Mayer writes wonderful books for beginning readers. My first grade daughter can read his books with relative easy, which helps her with her confidence. There are enough challenging words to keep her learning. She really enjoyed reading this book and pointing out to me how the sister was misbehaving. Rather than using the story as an excuse to misbehave, we use it as a learning tool. It is a story any parent can relate to!
