i can read and make you think too book

There are many reviews to help one decide on this book, so what is added here may not add too much to the discussion:
It can be fun and a little scary (but not too scary, more a cautious-scary).
A little can be helped with critical and objective thinking, and this book can grow with the little because as those skills are trained the little will see and contemplate the different aspects this book inspires.
Adults can benefit from reading this book from time-to-time, also.
P.S. there are a couple of audio/animations on YouTube if one cares to look... just search "Mouse Soup"
