Mo's Stinky Sweater

By: David Bedford
Illustrated by: Edward Eaves

Published by: Hyperion Books for Children
Pages: 32


The monkey Mo always wears his rainbow sweater, he wears it to pick berries, and making mud pies. He uses his sweater to clean his hands and face after eating messy foods. One day his mom came and tried to take the sweater off of Mo to go wash it, but Mo wouldn't let her. They had a tug-a-war over the sweater, and had other animals join on either side. Mo let go and his mother and her friends tumbled into the mud. Mo's sweater eventually gets washed, but when he put it on, it is too big and stretched out! But he doesn't mind, because now he can sleep in his sweater, like a hammock.


Possible problems/conflicts? Possibly when Mo won't obey his mom, this could be a bad example.


Who would I recommend this to? Anyone who wants a smile, mainly preschoolers though.


My reaction: I feel this a fun book for little kids, great colors and pictures! I give it 4 stars ****
