Review by School Library Journal Review
PreS-Simple stories for fans of the busy mouse. In the first book, Maisy's friend Charley helps her tidy up her house and is rewarded with a cupcake, while in the second, Maisy learns just how much is needed to quench the thirst of an elephant. In both titles the bright, colorful illustrations face a page of large-print text. Delightful books that will help reinforce the concepts of helping and sharing.-Wendy S.

Review by Horn Book Review
In Cleans Up, Charley the crocodile is rewarded with cupcakes for helping Maisy the mouse do housework. In Lemonade, Eddie the elephant drinks all of Maisy?s lemonade, inspiring her to make a fresh batch--with Eddie?s assistance. Thanks to Cousins?s light touch, both books manage to promote helpfulness and hard work without lecturing. The boldly colored illustrations will appeal to preschoolers.
