Big Mo Reviews
-
The story of Big Mo is incredibly timely and a great vehicle for teaching young readers about over-consumption in a sweet, entertaining way. The book is richly illustrated with beautiful drawings from author Megan Padalecki that make Big Mo come to life. I look forward to more Big Mo adventures from this new children's author.
-
Big Mo is a delightful read with an educational value that is not preaching at all, but rather hidden in the humurous tale of Mo's greed. The story made me smile, but it also made me appreciate the message to the children how to be moderate and not selfish. The illustrations are wonderful.

Fun children's book about a voracious iguana who devours the world and then realizes it might not have been the best idea.
