Mouse went out to get a snack / Lyn Rossiter McFarland ; pictures by Jim McFarland.

McFarland, Lyn Rossiter, (author.). McFarland, Jim, 1935- (Added Author). McFarland, Jim, 1935- (illustrator.).

Summary:

A hungry mouse finds a tableful of delectable morsels in quantities which illustrate counting from one to ten. A mouse counting on a snack A peckish mouse on the hunt for a light snack - something like a piece of cheese - climbs up the table and finds a feast fit for a king. He prepares an enormous platter filled with everything from chicken legs to tacos to cupcakes - and of course there's cheese, too. However, the cat is onto him, and a chase ensues as the mouse desperately shoulders his smorgasbord back to his hole - but it's too small! All the food flies up, up, up, landing on the unfortunate feline. All except the cheese, that is, which bounces safely into the mousehole. In addition to being a happy adventure with the simplest of texts and hilarious pictures, there is the bonus of counting the items of food the mouse piles on - and later loses - from the single cheese portion up to the ten slices of chocolate cake.
