In this easy reader version of the picture book Mouse's First Day of School, Thompson describes what Mouse finds when he rides to school in a backpack: "Mouse finds juice. Mouse finds fruit and cookies. It is snack time! Sip, slurp, crunch!" Mouse also finds "his favorite thing. Mouse finds friends!" Illustrations in glowing colors provide appealing close-ups of Mouse and his discoveries.
