Books with title The Supermarket Mice

*** THE NUMBER ONE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER ***The stunning debut novel from one of the most creative artists of our generation, Bobby Hall, a.k.a. Logic.“Bobby Hall has crafted a mind-bending first novel, with prose that is just as fierce and moving as his lyrics. Supermarket is like Naked Lunch meets One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest—if they met at Fight Club.”—Ernest Cline, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Ready Player One Flynn is stuck—depressed, recently dumped, and living at his mom’s house. The supermarket was supposed to change all that. An ordinary job and a steady check. Work isn’t work when it’s saving you from yourself. But things aren’t quite as they seem in these aisles. Arriving to work one day to a crime scene, Flynn’s world collapses as the secrets of his tortured mind are revealed. And Flynn doesn’t want to go looking for answers at the supermarket. Because something there seems to be looking for him. A darkly funny psychological thriller, Supermarket is a gripping exploration into madness and creativity. Who knew you could find sex, drugs, and murder all in aisle nine?

This series of six books prepare children for a particular event, like going to the dentist or going shopping. The books explain 'what comes next' on an outing, and therefore help children to get through the task or situation more easily, and ultimately reduce stress for themselves and those around them. Each book is a simple, clear uncluttered analysis of a task: going to the dentist; going to the doctor; going to the hairdresser; going to the restaurant; going to the supermarket; going swimming. Each book has the same look and feel, and uses the same 'family' of characters, which promotes familiarity and learning. These books are particularly useful for pre-school children, children from socially disadvantaged backgrounds and children with intellectual and learning difficulties (the books can be used as part of a child's Individual Education Plan to help them to experience new activities and to achieve developmental milestones).

On a special trip to the supermarket, a young boy helps his mom buy what they need. There are meats, fruits, and vegetables to put in the shopping cart; soap and toilet paper, too. But the most important ingredients are those needed to bake a birthday cake. Children love to help out at the grocery store. In her signature style, Anne Rockwell conveys the thrill of a trip to the supermarket from a young child’s point-of-view. Thirty years ago, Anne Rockwell collaborated with her husband Harlow on this charming book. This beloved favorite has been newly updated for a new generation of young readers.
