For the last few months, Kohls has had the mouse from If You Give a Mouse a Cookie on the shelves in the front of the store. Ella saw him once, and completely fell in love. She talked about him all the time, described him down to the tiniest detail, and said "That's where the mouse is," every time we drove past Kohls. When I saw that First Stage was showing If You Give a Mouse a Cookie as part of their First Steps Series, I knew we had to go.
We gave both girls a mouse to take to the show and told them about it the night before the performance.
Greg had to work, but Mom and Dad came along. Julie stayed with Audrey so I could enjoy the show, too.
It really was perfect for the girls--no seats, just carpeted risers and carpet squares on the floor, a simple set, a story they love, and it was only 45 minutes long. We will definitely go back for another show next year!
