REVIEWED BY KINSEY, 7, QLD
Claris: The Chicest Mouse in Paris by Megan Hess, Hardie Grant Children’s Publishing, ISBN 9781760502591
Kinsey’s review of this book was longlisted in the 2024 Young Reviewers’ Competition.
This is my favourite book because it has lots of fashion in it and it’s also by my favourite author Megan Hess. Claris is a very stylish mouse and in the story Claris finds a new friend who is a cat called Monsieur. It’s about her trying to find a new home in Paris.
I like the illustrations because it has so many details and I also like all of the different pinks. My favourite part of the story is when Claris saves the cat and then runs back to her flat because I think it was kind that Claris saved him. I like the rhyming words because it is entertaining. I like this book because I like drawing fashion or even copying the dresses, shoes and the handbags from the book.
I think kids in year two, year one, prep and kindergarten would like this book as much as I do.
