Mickey Mouse Clubhouse: Mystery of the Missing Muffins (Disney Early Readers)
Meeska, Mooska, Mickey Mouse! Welcome to the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse! Join Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy, Goofy and Pluto in two ready-to-read tales that teach valuable lessons about letters, numbers, shapes, decision-making, and friendship

Mickey has baked a tray of his world famous muffins and has left them in his windowsill to cool. When he returns later the muffins are gone! Detective Donald and the Clubhouse crew take on the case, and follow a series of clues to determine who or what is the mysterious muffin snatcher.

The premiere of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse delivered the highest ratings ever for a Playhouse Disney series premiere among Kids 2-5, Girls 2-5, Households, and Total Viewers. It also premiered at #1 among all basic cable networks in its time period for Kids 2-5. Mickey Mouse Clubhouse shows no signs of slowing down as it settles in to its first season. It is the number one show among preschoolers.
Customer Review: Poor story, strange flash cards
This Early Reader book is the worst I've seen from Disney. The story (Mickey Mouse and his friends search for a missing pan of muffins) includes clues that are never explained and, for some reason, the characters assuming that Daisy Duck has stolen the food. Included are a dozen flash cards that you can tear out to help your child learn the numbers 1 through 12. But all the information is on the same side! There's nothing on the back! For example, the first flash card shows the word "one," the numeral "1" and a picture of one muffin. Huh? Maybe I'm missing something here, but this just doesn't make sense to me. I did notice that this book was produced in Malaysia. Maybe that explains it. Two nice touches: An envelope to hold the cards is glued to the inside of the back cover, and the last page is a recipe for blueberry muffins.
