This book is okay. I remember reading one of these books as a child, and liking it. Now as an adult I think it's okay. The visuals are really unique, and cute, but I will say the pacing is a little off sometimes, at least to me.
I think this would be a good book for kids to read, especially girl scientists. I like how Babymouse is a day dreamer, and I like that! It was really cool to see her day dream, and I find her the most interesting character in the book.
All in all, it's a good book for kids, and parents who want to get their children into reading.

The 14th installment of this popular series finds Babymouse up to her usual antics: daydreaming while attempting to conquer her latest interest. This one is the science fair, encouraged by her father she begins to study amoebas. Little does she know they're not as boring as one would think . . .
Filled with humor and sly references to pop culture, Babymouse should be read with care, lest you miss a hilarious aside or picture. This installment also does double duty as an introduction to Squish, who is starring in his own series, [b:Squish: Super Amoeba|9486602|Squish Super Amoeba (Squish, #1)|Jennifer L.

I am going to have to be sure to read all of the Babymouse books! Being a former science teacher, there was so much I enjoyed in reading this. I like the way Holm creates humor that appeals to both students and adults. Of course, I cringed when the entire class was growing mold to demonstrate the scientific method (not a bad idea, but I've seen it hundreds of times!), and amoebas are not green. But, other than that, the book is so clever and funny. It's a great example of how graphic novels can contain lots of information and imagination simultaneously. As far as I'm concerned, we can't overemphasize science, and Holm portrays it generally in a positive light.

Just in time for my school's science fair. The kids will love this and I loved the intro to Squish in this book.

Super fun for kids! And enough quirky references and jokes for grownups as well. I would definitely recommend Babymouse to young readers wanting a fun graphic novel series.
