Excellent for very young
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I have a number of these Beatrix Potter stories and I love them all. This is one is particularly good for very young children. My 13 mo old can wait for the sentence or two on each page, then help turn the page and get through it without too much impatience. Cute story, too, of course.
Cute!

THE STORY OF MISS MOPPET is the cute story of a cat name Miss Moppet who's been played by a mouse. Their antics could only remind you to the famous cartoon series Tom and Jerry. It's a very short story, equip with beautiful water-color illustrations for your enjoyment and to help nurture the children's imagination. Cute plot and good for a quick read.
The cat and the mouse!

In this little tale we meet Miss Moppet, a cat who thinks she hears a mouse. The chase is on as the mouse declares that he is not afraid of a kitten. Nice illustrations in this book, the kitten and the mouse are very life-like and the story is very cute. A nice read to share with the little ones. Shirley Johnson
My Favorite Beatrix Potter

Miss Moppet is certainly one of the cutest of all the Beatrix Potter books. I love the illustrations and recommend this book to any Beatrix Potter fan. Miss Moppet would also appeal to most cat lovers out there. As always, it includes a useful moral to the story.
The Story of Miss Moppet
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
"The Story of Miss Moppet" is very cute. It revolves around Tom Kitten's sister, Moppet, and a Mouse. The Mouse teases Miss Moppet behind a cupboard and when she jumps she just misses him and ends up bumping her head on the hard surface. She ties her aching head up in a duster, while the Mouse comes out to make sure she is alright and then... This tale has an amusing end and makes a good bedtime story for toddlers. They will especially like the illustrations of the adorable kitten and the last picture of the quick-minded Mouse.
