"Typical"..... typically adorable, that is. This would be a great way to tie into elections, history, and politics. I even jumped online to look up "Tammany Hall" while reading it.

Babymouse is a perennial favorite and this issue is perfect for an election year.

LOVE the part when Babymouse gets her soul back!

Babymouse's Locker running for school president? Loved it. The Holms are so clever, and this is another witty installment.



I would definitely vote for Baby Mouse! I just love this series.

If only Babymouse could be elected president....

Babymouse 2020

A cupcake in every locker!


Although this is the 16th book in the BabyMouse series, this was my first experience with the cute and sassy BabyMouse. In this book, BabyMouse decides to run for student council president. She doesn't take it very seriously at first, but as the story progresses, she realizes that her voice and opinions really do matter. Of course things don't always go her way which as she likes to say is "typical", but this just adds to her charm.

The biggest obstacle she faces in the election is that she's up against meangirl Felicia Furrypaws, the very tall Georgie Giraffe, and the adorable Santiago Seal. I found myself laughing out loud when you find out that even her locker is running (I especially appreciated it's slogan "Vote for Locker! I am made of metal!"). This series is great for those who love silly humor and can appreciate a flawed but spunky main character. BabyMouse for President is an excellent choice to read and share in this election year.
