Product Description
My trip, by me, Miss MouseHi! I'm going on an airplane trip with my best friend. It's so exciting! First we go to the airport, and I get to ride through the X-ray machine. Whee! Then the plane takes off and we go tip and up and tip above the clouds. You'd be surprised at all the things there are to do on an airplane! Miss Mouse, the mischievous rag doll introduced in Miss Mouse's Day, is back in a high-flying adventure bursting with the warmth, humor, and bright illustrations that are Jan Ormerod's signature.
Amazon.com Review
Miss Mouse--the poker-faced, gangly-limbed rag doll who first appeared in Jan Ormerod's Miss Mouse's Day--takes to the air with her towheaded friend and her mom in Miss Mouse Takes Off. Amazing how much there is to do on an airplane with a little creativity and a lot of energy! They color pictures, watch a movie, play catch with the little boy one row up (Miss Mouse practices her flying as she's tossed from one to the other), and congratulate the pilot on a good landing. After being mislaid a few times, and almost lost to the baggage carousel, Miss Mouse (not to mention her young guardian and her cheerful but harried mother) is ready to get out of the airport and into Granny's arms. Every child with a strong attachment to one special cuddly toy will be right on board with Miss Mouse's adventures. Told from the multipatterned mouse's point of view, the story is full of wry observations and humorous asides. "I love to color..." Miss Mouse says, even as the reader notices that she is squashed in the seat behind her crayon-clutching friend. In the next frame both girl and mouse seem to have tired of drawing, and Miss Mouse continues her statement: "for a while." The simple, brief, first-person text and jaunty illustrated panels make this a perfect fit for beginning readers. (Ages 3 to 7) --Emilie Coulter

If your child loved Miss Mouse's Day, they will love this one as well. I purchased this for my daughter before her first plane trip and she loved it. The pictures are cute and the book is short and sweet. There is a bit of hide and seek as you search for Miss Mouse in the overhead bin, bathroom, baggage carousel, etc. There is no big message from this book, but it is cute and great for a kid on the go!
