The premise of this Dr. Seuss book is that a mouse and a bird enter a people house to investigate and take a look around.
"Come inside, Mr. Bird," said the mouse.
"I'll show you what there is in a People House..."
There is the usual Seussian rhyme in this one, but the main thrust of the book is to give a list of household items.
"Bananas, bathtub, bottles, brooms...
That's what you find in people's rooms".
Considerations :::
This one is good for children reading at the first grade level. (The Accelerated Reading designation is a generic "1") The book is not absolutely fascinating the way other Seuss books are, but it provides very good reading practice.
In addition, the artwork is cute and colorful. The print is VERY large and non-threatening for beginning readers.
I would not suggest you purchase this book as it doesn't have the 'stay power' of a good purchase. Which is to say, that young children will quickly tire of reading it, and unless they will have siblings or friends to hand it off to, your money could be better used.
