Overview

Join Mr. Rat on an adventure to get his cheese!

The umbrella ant is living in the cheese, but it's all Mr. Rat can think about. He's determined to not only get it back, but also to do it the right way.

Mr. Rat comes up with a brilliant plan that will help him achieve his goal and, along the way, discovers that by being kind and thoughtful and a good friend, everyone can end up happy in the end.

This is especially helpful for young children learning their vowels and for those having a hard time learning to read.

Description

Join Mr. Rat on an adventure to get his cheese!

The umbrella ant is living in the cheese, but it's all Mr. Rat can think about. He's determined to not only get it back, but also to do it the right way.

Mr. Rat comes up with a brilliant plan that will help him achieve his goal and, along the way, discovers that by being kind and thoughtful and a good friend, everyone can end up happy in the end.

This is especially helpful for young children learning their vowels and for those having a hard time learning to read.

Developed as a teaching tool for children to learn their vowels, this delightful rhyming book is a fun journey with new friends and a valuable lesson. Filled with magical illustrations and delightful animals, this rhyming book is a great companion for books like The Hungry Hungry Caterpillar.

This debut picture book for Isabelle Burge, published when she was 100 years old, was created as a useful tool to help children learn to read, especially focusing on their vowels.

About the author
A longtime resident of California, Isabelle Burge was born in Kansas City in 1918. She and her husband spent 80 years together, dancing and having grand adventures throughout the country. Stories have always popped up in Isabelle's head, and How Mr. Rat Got His Cheese is the first to be shared with the world. This book began as a teaching tool for vowels during Isabelle's time as a teacher. In between all her social engagements, she is currently working on a new book.
