Lieselotte versteckt sich

Rate this book
Wie soll Lieselotte jemals von diesem Baum wieder herunterkommen? Eigentlich wollte sie nur mit ihren Freunden Verstecken spielen. Lieselotte hat sich auf dem Baum das allerbeste Versteck ausgesucht, so gut, dass keiner sie findet! Runterzuspringen traut sie sich nicht, also müssen die Freunde hochkommen, um ihr zu helfen. Doch als auch die es nicht mehr schaffen, vom Baum runterzuklettern, ist Rettung nur noch vom Postboten zu erwarten.

I love Millie! For a cow that doesn't speak, she has a very big personality. I love that her farmer is a woman with nary a man in sight. How original! "Farmer" always means "man" in picture books.
The illustrations offer so many hidden, silly details to enjoy in every scene. Loved the visual joke of the chicken dressed as a mime as they are trying to explain where the missing farmer is.

I like this book because Millie found a good hiding spot and no one found her and then they saw her and then they tried to rescue her and nothing worked. And the mail carrier called the fire-engine people, and then they helped them and they had a tea party and they had a nice view from where they were sitting in the tree and they climbed down from the tree.

The End.

P.S. I told you they called the fire engine.

Fantastic. Mille is one of my very favorites. This adventure is a tree full of laughs. (ha ha!) Adore the illustrations and all the humor therein. This would be fun to try in storytime, because you don't have to read the other 2 Millie books to enjoy all the wonderful that it is.

12/4/13 I put this into my Heroes theme for preschool. I think they got this a lot better than the original Millie story I read. How could you miss the humor of everyone being stuck in a tree?

Fans of Emily Gravett's series of Bear and Hare will love Alexander Steffensmeier's work in Millie and the Big Rescue.
Millie (a cow) and her farm animal friends are playing a friendly game of hide-and-seek. Millie finds the perfect hiding spot, with the best view of the farm, but finds herself stuck. Her animal friends come to her rescue though in a story that will make you laugh out loud.

What a silly, delightful read! I chuckled a few times throughout the book. I love the ridiculousness of it but also how the farmer is so practical and matter-of-fact about it all (since the tablecloth is stuck up in the tree with them, the chickens might as well bring the tea and the cake up too and other sorts like that).

Surprisingly good, considering it did not have rhymes or a particularly obvious life lesson. The drawings of animals were cute, and it was neat that some of the story was told by the pictures and not the words (e.g. the ladder falling). I liked that the farmer was a woman (usually it is a man), for a change of pace. Calming story about friends and making the most of a situation.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Millie and the Big Rescue is such a silly and funny read! The story itself is entertaining, but the illustrations are what really make this book shine. There is SO much happening on every single page, but in the best way possible. Every time we reread it, we notice something new that we completely missed before. It’s one of those books that keeps getting more fun the more you look at!

Millie and her farm friends play a game of hide and seek. Millie has found the perfect place to hide, so perfect that no one can find her. Millie decides to help her friends find her but something goes wrong, and before you know it the entire town is in on the game. A silly fun read.

Another great Millie book. The illustrations have a lot of cute small side characters that are doing silly things on the sidelines. I love reading this over and over again

Kiddo wanted on repeat, delightful visuals (all-white human characters, though).

Millie, the milk cow, loved to play hide-and-seek with her animal friends on the farm. She always found the best spots to hide. One day nobody could find her and when they did, they had to bring in all kinds of help to rescue her. This picture book has the most colorful and expressive illustrations that tell the better part of the story. If you love everything about the farm, you will love this picture book!

Millie (from Millie Waits for the Mail) is back, playing hide-and-seek with her friends on the farm. Millie is great at finding the best hiding spot . . . but this time, when she chooses the top of a tree, she gets stuck. Eventually the animals spot Millie, and the goat climbs up (for she is the best climber) to check on her. But then they are both stuck. And one by one, the entire farm ends up in the tree. Even the farmer, who decides it's a fine place to picnic while waiting to be rescued.

The book's large size and very appealing illustrations make it perfect for preschool storytime (used at ELC 1/16). Charming endpapers show Millie hiding in a variety of other locations on the farm.

Millie (the cow) and the other farm animals are enjoying a rousing game of hide-and-seek when Millie's efforts to hide land her too high in the tree and she is unable to get down. Through a series of mishaps, the rest of the animals and the farmer end up stuck in the tree too - except for the chickens. They are sent on a rescue mission to next door to ask for help.

Charming illustrations.

I adore quirky farm animal picture books and Millie never disappoints. The warmth and familiarity of the setting is tempered with a unpredictable plot and weirdly silly details in the bright, clear illustrations. A gem. Can read the series out of order, but it is better if you start with "Millie Waits For The Mail". Highly recommended for ages 3-6.

This story took place on a farm with a bunch of farm animals. The main character was a cow. The story was very simple but very good. This story was definitely for a beginning reader. The illustrations throughout this book were great. I do think that the pictures really did a great job explaining the story. There was a lot to look at on each page.

Gotiņa uzrāpusies kokā un ēd plūmju kūku tur ar pārējiem pagalma zvēriem, saimnieci un pastmeistaru? Izklausās neticami, ne? Nezinu, kā pamatot bērnam, kā tas ir iespējams, bet citādi super grāmata - kolosālas, krāsainas ilustrācijas, viegli uztverams teksts ar lieliem burtiem.

This is a 3 1/2 for me but I gave it a 4 because the picture is so funny and the story is silly. I don't know what the point is but or why a cow would make it to a top of the tree's but this is a nice book and makes me want to go on a picnic. The picture with the cow in the tree is HILARIOUS!

This was my first Millie book. For me, it's a book put out for Millie fans, but a reader unfamiliar with the series will put it down feeling confused. Also, the illustrations don't tell the story logically at times. Cute idea, poor execution.
