Review: Mums And Mogs

Mums And Mogs is pure delight. Acclaimed
author and mischief-maker Mick Elliot delivers a veritable snapshot of all the
possible combinations of mothers, children and their cats – also known as mogs.  This celebration of all things feline within family is a hoot. ‘A joyful carnival of fun, family, and more than a
little bit of mischief…’ We are
treated to many, many bright and cheerful illustrations of family situations
where mogs abound in daily life.  There are dressed-up mogs, hungry mogs, happy
mogs, muddy mogs, crazy mogs and wily mogs. The fresh
and funny pictures along with fabulous and often onomatopoeic word-play,
combine to bring a breezy sense of fun and play to this book. Children
will certainly delight in the all-round variety and mischief of these furry
friends.
The sticker on the front tells us that this is The Purrfect gift to say I
Love You, Mum. And yes, it
probably is!   Title: Mums And Mogs Author/Illustrator: Mick Elliot Publisher: Walker Books, $27.99 Publication Date: 1 April 2024 Format: Hardcover ISBN: 9781760655051 For Ages: 4 - 8 Type: Picture Book
