Review Quotes

Selected, NPR's Great Reads, 2013

"Monster + mustache = 'Huzzah!' With a soupçon of cool .... Requests for repeats are a certainty, and small ones will learn a lesson about individuality while enjoying this delightfully fun monster tale. Mo's mustache? Magnifique!" - Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews

"Huzzah! Laugh-aloud funny, Clanton's story also offers a way to begin discussing individuality or peer pressure." - School Library Journal
