Title: reversing materialism in children
Review: I have known this book since I was a child growing up in the '70's, and could relate to it back then. It's main theme is the materialism that has possesed the young mouse and the hell she puts her mother through because of it. It seemed relevant in 1975, so I believe it is even more relevat today.The author uses humor and wit to get kids to see how spoiled the little mouse has become. It is much like a Freaky Friday story, since a witch has the mother and daughter switch places, and by doing so the daughter learns what it's like to have a difficult child. I love this book and used it in my kindergarten classroom, it is not to be missed.
