A charming circular story where the tiniest animal just might be the most powerful. When the Elephant walks, he scares the Bear. When the Bear runs away, he scares the Crocodile. When the Crocodile swims for his life, he scares the Wild Hog . . . and so on, down to the Mouse. And who could be scared of the little Mouse? The last spread answers this question in a way that will delight small children-and the endearing animals, rhythmic text, and hilarious illustrations will make this book a favorite.

the board book is a great size and durable and gorgeously illustrated. with many animals in hilarious situations (for animals,) this is a great addition to an child's library. i'm adding all if Kasza's illustrated works to our wishlist because they are so pretty.
Very Entertaining

This is a great book. My daughter really enjoys it. The story is witty and the illustrations are beautiful and original.
Perfect for a two year old, she "reads" it to me.

This cleverly illustrated book is a cute story with few words per page, which is great for my two year old. We have checked it out from the library so much that I am now going to buy it. She is learning new vocabulary, for example "scurries". Tonight I turned the pages while she told me the story, word for word. As an early childhood educator I am impressed with the vocabulary, the animation depicted in the illustrations, and the joy it brings to my child and I.
