Bookroo's summary

Maisy the mouse finds joy in cleaning when her friend Charley visits. As they tidy up, Charley catches a whiff of something delicious but must wait for the floor to dry. Together, they make chores a breeze, from picking up toys to washing windows. With teamwork, the task is done, and a delightful treat awaits. Will their friendship make the wait worthwhile?

From the publisher

The celebrated mouse is back — and she’s cleaning house!

For Maisy, even cleaning up can be fun — if you have a friend stop by to help. In Maisy Cleans Up, Charley smells something delicious in Maisy’s kitchen but has to wait until the floor is dry. Time passes more quickly when he pitches in to pick up some toys, and washing the windows is a cinch with Charley inside and Maisy out. Now the floor is finally dry, and there are the treats, all ready to eat. Good job! A story for parents to love as much as kids!
