Revue de presse

Praise for Mustache Baby 2014 IRA Children's Choices Reading List2014 Children's Choice Book of the Year nomineeGeekDad's Best Books of 2013 "You never know what you'll get in the delivery room, and something isn't quite right with this new baby. . . . Heos's offbeat tale muses on the possibilities, playing off parental hope and panicky nightmares."—New York Times Book Review "Occasional badness has never been so good."—Kirkus "The book's oddball sense of humor is unflagging."—Publishers Weekly "A mustached baby will surely make audiences howl during read-alouds."—Booklist Online "Bristles with appealing humor."—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books "Quirky, silly fun."—School Library Journal Praise for Stronger Than Steel"Move over, Spider-Man. . . . Abundant photographs and a lively narrative make the topic accessible and almost lighthearted, and Heos lays groundwork for readers with a basic introduction to DNA and gene theory."—Publishers Weekly, starred review "Clear focus, careful explanations with occasional repetition of denser information, and a wealth of color photographs make this title inviting and accessible. . . and the kissin'-cute goats should entice quite a few readers to explore this project further."—Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"Ang's cinematic cartoon illustrations are again a joy. More a Mustache Toddler now but still getting into hairy situations, Baby Billy's still good fun." —Kirkus "The animated digital illustrations capture the spirit of competition between the children and add much humor...Children will also appreciate the playful tone of the narrative, which is replete with allusions to the Old West." —School Library Journal "The witty cartoonish illustrations provide additional humor, and the toddlers' constantly morphing facial hair helps emphasize their passtionate, over-the-top reactions. Younger readers will enjoy the silly story, and older readers will appreciate the amusing details threaded through the artwork." —Booklist

Présentation de l'éditeur

When Baby Javier comes for a playdate, Baby Billy, a.k.a. Mustache Baby, feels the need to show him a thing or two, seeing how Javier’s new to town—and also sports an impressive beard. What ensues is a hilarious test of wills and facial hair, as each baby sets out to prove his manliness. It seems Mustache Baby may have truly met his match . . . but one-upmanship isn’t the point of a playdate, is it?
