Mercer Mayer is an American children's author and illustrator. He has published over 300 books, using a wide range of illustrative styles. Mayer is best known for his Little Critter and Little Monster series of books.
I love the main character's self confidence. He never sees the negative part in himself. The Critter family had an exciting adventure in this book! They went to a ski resort. It looked like fun until Dad hurt himself but the family still included him in their fun!
This was another adorable "Little Critter" storybook. In this one it would be hard to read outloud to a child if they weren't able to follow with looking at the pictures. As often the words go against the pictures (Like when he says he didn't need help but his sister did. But the illustrations shows his mama helping him. etc) The family goes on a ski trip and Dad thinks he can endure the big slopes but soon gets a bad foot so he's on crutches the entire trip. But as always Little Critter makes things good.
