An old wise mouse warns his three young mice of the danger that lurks at the top of the cellar stairs, yet they insist on seeing it for themselves. Step by step, they climb up to the dark shadows. . .... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I give this book four stars, only because I wish it was longer! It was a very good story, and would have been better if they went into more detail. The story is about some curious mice who want to go the top of the stairs, to the dark, to see the monster who lives up there. It's really cute to see what and who the monster ends up being. This story is very fun for children to read, and the illustrations make you feel part of the story, like you are traveling up the stairs with them. Exeperience the suspense, as you travel with the mice to see the huge, terrifying monster that has been talked about their whole lives!

I was not sure if this was too scary when my thre year old son picked this book out. When we got home we read it over and over again. It kept him in suspense trying to figure out what was at the top. I suggest this cute book for any 2 to 3 year old and my son would too. We had to go buy the book.

My son picked this book off a cart at the library and I was hesitant to read it with fear that it may scare him. He loved it as it kept him wondering what was at the top. We had to read it over and over each night. He likes cats and loved the book. I eventually had to buy the book. I recommend this for any 2 1/2 to 3 year old. It is a cute story!
