Cartoonish riff on the it-could-be-worse trope. I didn't care for the animal-on-animal hate, but liked that the king at the end learned to get along with the mice, rather than merely tolerating them as the lesser evil.
Loved reading this one. The kids have loved it since they were babies.
The favorite board book at our house. It has a great rhythm. I do wish they'd make a version that has the complete text from the non-board version. I was shocked to discover there was more.I fully expect to be able to recite this when I'm 102.
