Publisher Description

One by one, on successive days of the week, six blind mice investigate parts of the strange something near their pond and speculate to the group about its identity. Not until the seventh day, when the seventh mouse examines all of it, do they see what it truly is, proving that wisdom comes only from seeing the whole.

"I used this book for sequencing. It works great because their are about 10 events that happen and seven of them can be associated with a color. Then all the students have to do is keep track of the color in their head or with a manipulative to help them retell the story. The pictures are clear and simple. Some of the words may be new to students so you would event want to go over them or use the book for a comprehension lesson."

    " I thought this book would be perfect to teach young children especially about how we need to look at the whole picture. It could relate to many differnt things in life, from how to solve a problem to how we preceive others. "

    " This book is based on an Indian legend called the Blind Men and the Elephant, that says God is interpreted in different ways based on the different experiences that people have. With religion aside, I think this is a good book to make students aware that we all have different experiences that change the way we view the world. "

    " I thought this book was cute. I like the way each mouse had his own idea what the something was until the girl mouse went to look for herself and was able to see the entire thing. "

    " This is a great book for children. The mice and children are both trying to figure out what is by the mouse's home. It leaves the children excited for the ending and it keeps them wrapped up in the book because they are so curious! Great for younger kids. "

    " OK so very monocramatic and sketchy on the artwork of the elephant, still felt artsie and eastern in tone. Like the moral at the end that to be enlightened you have to see the whole through the many parts of something. "

    " I thought this book was very interesting. I think it engages students by making them use their imagination as to what the object really is. In the story each mouse thinks the object is something different. So it really makes the students think about what the object really is. "

    " Good story that relates the idea that parts are great, but a whole is better. It states on the last page. A short, easy read to quickly get the children's attention. "
