Seven Blind Mice

Seven Blind Mice by Ed Young is a terrific folk tale about seven blind mice.  When something new comes each mouse goes out to see what it is and they all come back with different ideas.  The final mouse looks at the entire thing and figures out what it is teaching a great lesson.

I purchased the picture book as well as the audio version of this book.  The audio version is beautiful and the background music is magical and really adds to the story.  I used it in my music classroom because the music was so fantastic.

I recommend this story to kids 3-7.  It's a fantastic read-a-loud.
