If a hungry little traveler shows up at your house, you might want to give him a cookie. If you give him a cookie, he's going to ask for a glass of milk. He'll want to look in a mirror to make sure he doesn't have a milk mustache, and then he'll ask for a pair of scissors to give himself a trim....

My 4 year old son recieved this book as a Christmas gift and he absolutely LOVES it! I bought this hardcover version for him because I recieved this book as a gift when I was a little girl.
