The 11th Babymouse installment is a hit! When Babymouse gets an F- on a math quiz, her teacher offers her extra credit to join the Mathletes and practice her arithmetic. But for Babymouse, winning a Mathlete competition is like finding the Holy Grail - nearly impossible! She keeps foraying into the

fantasy world of the thick novels she likes to read. (My favorite? "Another Story About an Orphan Who Has Magical Abilities and Saves the World from the Forces of Darkness (Book One of Twelve)" . Highly recommended and one of my favorite of the Babymouse books!

3Q- I wish they read more smoothly as individual books. Reading #11 on its own made me feel like I needed to read the previous books in the series to understand some of the references.
4P- Graphic novels and comic book fans will be drawn to this one, but some of the vocabulary is advanced and might

leave younger readers lost.

5Q, 4P
A distinctive visual style combined with a strong storyline, makes this a good choice for older beginning readers. The storyline and visuals allow for reading comprehension along several levels, and play on words increase depth and vocabulary. However, the visual style takes some getting used

to and some readers may not enjoy the pink/white/black stylization.

Probably my favorite Babymouse so far. Lots of literary references. I particularly like the Fellowship of the Slide Rule.

I still enjoy each installment, but I wonder how much longer this series really needs to go on.
