The Mustache Baby Christmas. Bridget Heos. Illustrated by Joy Ang. 2019. 40 pages. [Source: Review copy]
First
sentence: You know that Baby Billy was born with a mustache. And that
Baby Javier was born with a beard. But did you know that on Christmas
Eve, Javier’s beard...that made him Santa’s #1 helper, Santa Baby!
Premise/plot:
Mustache Baby (Baby Billy) is Back and starring in his fourth picture
book. In this holiday adventure, these two friends become Santa’s
helpers. Javier becomes Santa Baby and Baby Billy becomes an elf. A
toy-making elf. But toys are made to be given away, right?!?! Will Billy
want to give away the toys that he has made?! Or will he want to keep
them ALL?! Will he be on Santa’s naughty or nice list?!
My
thoughts: I really enjoyed this one! It’s a cute and clever holiday read
aloud just about perfect for families. It is definitely full of puns.
These puns may get old after the fiftieth time or so, but I definitely
think it’s an again again read aloud to bring out season after season.
