Little Critter: Just a Little Love (My First I Can Read)

It all begins with a phone call from grandma with the information she is not feeling well. The family pulls together to think of things that will make grandma feel better. While each of the family members are performing their projects, misfortunes happen, and the concept of family love and help is there to solve their problems. While mom spends her time making potato salad for grandma, the kitty and dog find their way to eat it in the meantime, and the mouse and spider are there to help too! In the end all problems are solved by the concept of just needing a little love from their family.

On each page of this book Mercer Mayer cleverly places a spider and mouse in the illustrations that I enjoyed finding before moving on to the next page.
