The Blue Baboon in the Big Balloon

A Book Review

By Faith Mellinger July 24, 2014
"This book rhymes." 

That's what my 5-yeaar-old said about 3 pages in. It's crazy how much kids love alliteration, but they do - and that's one reason the Blue Baboon in the Big Balloon will be a hit with the children. Well that and the fact they travel to the moon, how cool is that! 

The story is funny, imaginative and entertaining. Kids are faced with so much seriousness in the world sometimes it's fun to read them a book that's just silly - and Sarah and Steven Mostyn's Blue Baboon in the Big Balloon accomplishes just that.

So join Harold, his brother Gerald and a whole cast of crazy characters as the big balloon goes for an adventure.

Available on Amazon for under $8.
