Henry and Mudge and the Careful Cousin

Written by Cynthia Rylant

Illustrated by Sucie Stevenson


Reviewed by Mazin S. (age 7)

Henry and Mudge cannot wait for their cousin Annie to come and spend the night. Annie ends up being clean and careful. She doesn't like being near Mudge. She doesn't approve of Henry's dirty room and smelly fish, but she politely doesn't complain. It turns out that Annie is amazing at frisbee. When she leaves, Henry and Mudge cannot wait to see her again.

My favorite part is when Mudge drools because Annie doesn't like it. Annie is my favorite character because she is beautiful. This story relates to my life because I have a cousin who is like that. The pictures didn't help tell the story.

I think others should read this story because they will enjoy it. It is an awesome and amazing book.
