It is a blustery spring day, and Mouse and Mole are very excited. They are going to go bird watching! They are planning to make bird books! Mouse and Mole pack paper and crayons and hurry outside. It turns out, birds are not so easy to watch. Splashing in puddles scare them away. Stepping on crunchy leaves does too. Mole rubs his snout. Mouse twirls her tail. Together, they come up with a plan to get closer to the birds. A plan that includes glue and feathers . . . Join Mouse and Mole on another high-flying adventure in which teamwork, brainstorming, and good ideas always make for a fun day out!
When snow covers the ground, Mouse is out for adventure while Mole stays warm in “another winning installment” of this Geisel Honor Award-winning series (Booklist). The snow has made the world outside into a winter wonderland. What better day for Mouse and Mole to go sledding, whirl around on ice skates, and build snowmen together? But Mole does not want to go outside. Too cold! Too windy! He prefers to stay as snug as a bug in a rug inside his nice, warm bed. Mouse is lonely. Ice skating and sledding just aren’t as fun for one. Then she gets an idea…a Sno-Mole might do the trick! Mole won’t be needing his hat or scarf or mittens…or will he? Sometimes even best friends want to do different things. But at the end of a cold winter’s day, it's nice to know that your best friend will be there waiting for you, with warm mittens and all.
"Mole often stumbles into precarious situations, from delicately handling the first daffodil of spring to trimming his uneven whisker lengths. Luckily, he has his best friend Mouse to guide him through each scenario-even when he least expects it!"--
On a snowy day, Mouse is swept outside where he plays in the snow, ice skates on a frozen puddle, and makes sure his friends the birds get something to eat. Illustrations.
Ms. Frizzle and her class climb aboard the Magic Bus and follow a kite that has broken free on a windy day, and during the chase they learn about sailboats, weather balloons, windmills, and other things which use energy from the wind.
