A very simple book. Great for kindergarten/1st grade students as its very short and doesn’t have many hard words. I felt as if it was too simple. It gets the point across but didn’t seem very interesting. Could just be my adult mind going to work though.

Brings nothing new and I don't like the artwork.

Interesting story with visually pleasing illustrations. Suitable for children that are into reading and wants to improve their proficiency in English language.

What got me about The Country Mouse and the City Mouse: Yellow Level is how Eric Blair demonstrates that the most effective cage is the one you build for yourself out of fear of social rejection.

¿Por qué leo este tipo de libros si tengo musofobia? Bueno, ese es otro tema.


Esta pequeña historia nos deja ver las diferencias que se tienen entre campo y ciudad. Muchas veces pensamos que lo demás siempre es mejor a lo que tenemos y no sabemos agradecerlo, esto es algo que el cuento representa bastante bien.


¿Lo recomiendo? Claro que si, solo no sean como yo y no lo lean si tienen musofobia.

This story is a retelling of Aesop's Fables. This story tells the story of two mouses who lead to different lives. Country mouse lives a rather simple life and eats simple foods, while City mouse lives a more extravagant life with plenty of food. This story is a great folk tale to read to young children to teach them comparing and contrasting.
