In my opinion this is a great story. The main characters are believable and easy for readers to relate to. For example, the Gruffalos child is fearless in a sense that she wants to challenge her father fear of the mouse. The mouse continues to play an antagonistic role throughout the story. I also

enjoy the repetition of rhyming from page to page. The rhyming allows for ease of fluency when reading aloud. Readers will find themselves predicting the next rhyming words with the story. The overall message of this story is that size does not always account for one’s mental and physical strength.

The Gruffalo's child decides to go out and find the big bad mouse however every time he thinks he has found it it is a different animal. This is just a cute story about children going on adventures but running home after they are done.

The natural predators of the mouse conspire to deprive a mythical creature, which we might assume to be a carnivore, of its hors d'oeuvre.

None of the stuff that made the first book great was present, and negative behavior was demonstrated (going outside alone, without telling parents, in a snow storm, looking for danger).

Continues the Gruffalo's tale with more poetry and a female child amidst the established male characters.
