Join Mamma Moo and Crow as they try on clothes. Crow puts on a hat, Mamma Moo enjoys beautiful leg warmers and a sun hat. Crow tries out his cool sunglasses and a cap. A wonderful and playful book with fantastic pictures for the youngest Mamma Moo readers. Mamma Moo and Crow don’t exactly have the same taste, but they have fun together!
Jujja’s comments about the book
These are books for the youngest children. The books can take some rough treatment and put up with being chewed on. Toddler books used to be just pictures of some object. Now we want them to have some substance, even if it needs to be simple. As small children make their way in the world, it can sometimes be hard work for both them and their parents. You don’t want them to fall down, hurt themselves, get their clothes dirty, eat unhealthy things… to not be so active ALL the time. But then it’s important that we make sure that the first words that a child hears are not restrictive: DON’T, BE CAREFUL, (sigh) LATER! Crow is sometimes like a worried parent. At least when he’s not amused, but then again he often is – thank goodness.
