Mick Elliott, Mums and Mogs, Walker Books Australia, April 2024, 32 pp., RRP $24.99 (hbk), ISBN 978176065501
Love the end papers of Mums and Mogs. Love the huge variety of cats in every shape and size. The mums are in every shape and size too. I suspect readers should be a cat-lover to be in the Mums and Mogs readership team. Luckily, the happy companion book is Mick Elliot’s Dads and Dogs. Dog lovers are in this team, even if you do not have a dog. Mums and Mogs is a cavalcade of fun with rascally, annoying, funny, adventurous, playful, hungry, floppy, greedy and naughty mogs. You should look for the many other mogs in this picture book. My favourite is the muddy mog.
This an entertaining picture book, especially for kids who want to discover their mog in these pages.
Suitable for ages 3-7
