This would be a great book to read out loud to a class or one-on-one with students. There are lots of pictures to look at and fun things to be found on every page. You can feel like a detective yourself while reading the story because the reader discovers things at the same time Hermelin does. The main character is personified as a human and is adorable. ( )

This story was super cute and unique. It was partially picture book style but also a little bit of graphic novel style. The artwork was really good and it got me engaged in the book. I think this book would be good for small groups or one on one because there is a lot of detail in the pictures. It can teach kids that they can be whatever they want to be and they should not let people hold them back. ( )

Entertaining story about a little white mouse who can read, type, and has remarkable sleuthing abilities. ( )

Hermelin the mouse finds the missing items for people in his community.
