When ever I think of this book I think of sleepover's at my Aunt Nancy's house. Me and my cousin Sam were really close when we were little kids and always used to have these great sleepovers together. As I remember it right before we went to bed every time my Aunt Nancy would always used to tuck us in and read a few stories to us that were our choice. Me and my cousin would always make her read "If you give mouse a cookie" first every single time. We would talk about what would happen if the mouse appeared in our house and what we would give him. In the book the little boy that lives in the house gives a mouse a cookie, simply after eating the cookie the mouse keeps getting distracted and starts these little projects and doesn't finish them. If you have noticed in the story both the characters never really speak in dialog but they show pictures of what they are doing. In the end the mouse asks for one last cookie and the little boy falls asleep at his little desk. This author also writes little sequels to the book like "If you take a mouse to school", "If you give a cat a cupcake" ect. I loved so many of the books on the list but once I saw this book it immediately grabbed my attention and I had to chose it.
