Mermelada pegajosa para untar con mantequilla de maní untada en pan. La noche es la hora de la merienda para un ratón travieso, cuyas coloridas travesuras en la cocina de una familia humana son un placer seguir. Como cualquier persona pequeña en un mundo de gente grande puede decirte, algo de desorden es inevitable: derrames de leche, después de todo, y dispersión de galletas. Empuñar enormes tenedores y cuchillos seguramente será una tarea difícil. Pero Mouse no se contenta con simplemente comer la comida que encuentra: rastrilla hojuelas de maíz en una pila para saltar, construye un castillo con azúcar y abre las tapas de botellas y frascos solo por diversión. En un clímax que enviará a los jóvenes lectores a un ataque de risa, un Mouse cansado y saciado se niega a aceptar la culpa por los estragos que ha causado: "'¿Quién hizo este horrible lío?' pregunta Mouse. '¡Esta gente necesita limpiar su casa!'". Se baña en una taza de té y se dirige a la cama, dejando que los niños imaginen la reacción de la familia bajando las escaleras para desayunar. Rebosante de exuberancia, Mouse Mess es una alegre oda al desorden. Los collages saturados de color de Linnea Riley se hicieron usando papel esponjado con pintura de acuarela, y las imágenes resultantes son casi palpablemente multidimensionales. Los niños se regocijarán con la perspectiva del tamaño de un ratón de las imágenes, que se abstienen de dar una vista de la encimera de la cocina desde el punto de vista de las personas hasta el final. Seguro que entretendrá, deleitará e incluso (cuidado) inspirará, este libro ilustrado gloriosamente brillante será uno de los favoritos en los años venideros.
