I was talking with a couple of middle school librarians earlier this week and they were talking about how much their students liked Babymouse so I just had to try one. Very cute and Babymouse is very much like a typical middle school girl. I love her whisker problem and the way the author talks directly to the reader and to Babymouse.

Babymouse stares longingly at the trophies in the school trophy case, none of which bear her name, remembering all of her less-than-thrilling “honorable mentions” and wishing that she could get a trophy of her own. Chances for glory come in unexpected places, however. As Babymouse is skating with her friends on a pond one day a famous figure skating coach stops her and invites her to train at the ice rink after school. With dreams of being an ice princess, Babymouse joyfully shows up for practic

This book is about a mouse named "Babymouse" who's a natural at skating. She gets trained by an Olympic coach and she is always dreaming of a medal. Later on Babymouse quits because it was much harder than she expected and it took up too much time.
I picked this book up because I read this series and I haven't read this one yet.
I finished this book because I wanted to know if Babymouse won her medal or not.
I recommend this book to Lucy or Helen becaus More...

As always, the simplicity of the text of Babymouse combined with the more complex storylines (at least in compairason to the text) are great! This time around Babymouse is discovered to be a great skater and a former olympic coach asks to train her. Excited, she says yes, and then learns just how much work is involved in working towards a trophy...

Babymouse Skater Girl is about Babymouse ice skating. The best part in this book is when Babymouse is seen ice skating by a skating coach and she asks Babymouse to be in her skating class. The problem is there's this girl in the skating class who is acting like a total brat. Trust me, if you're like me, you'll like this book.

It's nice to see Babymouse (kind of) come out on top. In this installment, she has the potential to be a really great skater, but maybe not the dedication. Something I can definitely relate to (although not with skating). Plus, the pink, white and black illustrations really look great with snow.

This book is written in comic book style and is good for students who are becoming confidnet in their reading skills and need to take their vocabulary to the nest step. I would reccomend this book for 3rd to 5th grade students.

This is a wonderful graphic novel series for girls. The pages are all black, white and pink. In this novel, Babymouse is determined to be the best ice skater in her school. Once she learns how hard it is will she continue?

It teaches you a lesson that if you wanna do something and you really wanna do it stick to it. If you're not gonna stick to it, then why bother. It teaches you that lesson think before you do.

Babymouse wonders if she has anything special until she discovers maybe she has a special ability with skating. But after awhile she wonders if all the sacrifices are really worth it.

In her signature black, white, and pale pink, Babymouse is back in this seventh graphic novel/comic. Discovered at the local frozen pond by a well-known ice skating coach who invites her to train at the rink, Babymouse jumps at the chance. The visions of grandeur floating through her mind cannot overcome the stress of 4:30 alarms, a super-competitive teammate, exhaustion, and--worst of all--being deprived of cupcakes. This has become a well-established series, and fans will eagerly seek out this

The latest installment in the Babymouse series finds Babymouse taking figure skating lessons. Babymouse has big dreams of winning a shiny trophy and her coach thinks she has natural talent. But will Babymouse have what it takes to train every day before and after school? Will she stick with the skating if it means giving up CUPCAKES??
Another hit from the Babymouse team! Plus, the shiny silver snowflakes on the cover make this a PERFECT stocking stuffer for the young reader in your lif

Another installment of Babymouse. Cute and endearing as ever, still with an elementary-friendly (but subtly-delivered) message.
The books are really, really short, though, and I wonder if it would be better to combine (say) 4 stories into one book. On the other hand, 2 at a time is about my limit for the voice, so maybe these 10-minute volumes are just about right.

After bonding with one of the librarians over our affection for Mo Willems, she tracked me down as I browsed the library & put this book in my hands accompanied by a glowing recommendation. I'm not a comic book reader/lover and this is in that style. But, this was a fun, cute book and I enjoyed reading it. I look forward to reading more Babymouse adventures.

Babymouse is a 9 year old rodent who goes to school and plays like a regular girl. She has an active fantasy life that always gets her into trouble, making her late to class and dreamy when she needs to pay attention. We see her adventures along with her friend Wilson Weasel and archenemy, the popular Felicia Furrypaws. A fun easy read graphic novel.

Babymouse discovers that she has the talent to become a competition ice skater. But does she have the will power to give up all that she loves to dedicate her life to ice skating, particularly best friend Wilson and (gasp!) cupcakes?

Babymouse learns what it tales to be a competitive figure skater. On top of the ambient Babymouse love, I also love books that deal with the work of being good at something.

Babymouse wants to be a really good skater, one who competes in shows, but the excessive amounts of practice and the pain could become too much for Babymouse.

Sometimes it takes failing to realize what we really need or want. How true, how true -- from the mouth of the narrator.
