Mustache Baby Meets His Match (Board Book) Bridget Heos. Illustrated by Joy Ang. 2018. Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. 36 pages. [Source: Review copy]
First sentence: Baby Billy was born with a mustache.
Premise/plot: This is the sequel to Mustache Baby. In this second book,
Baby Billy is mostly at odds with Baby Javier, a bearded baby. The
problem? Baby Javier and Baby Billy both want to be THE BOSS and tell
the other what to do. Also both babies want to be THE BEST. Can these
two learn to be friends and get along?
My thoughts: I liked this one. I did. I don't know that I LOVED, LOVED,
LOVED it like I did the first book. But I liked it. The illustrations
make this a clever read. It's the little details--often in the
illustrations--that bring a smile. For example, when the two compete at
running for President.
