Synopsis

A Color-in Story Ideal for 3 to 8 Year Olds
Grab your crayons or colored pencils for a fun time! Our first Mister Mustache “color-in” story is available now! This book includes the complete story of Gumdrop the cat’s birthday party, but it also engages your youngster in coloring and completing simple activities. Clear instructions are included on each interactive page. Markers are NOT recommended, as they may bleed through to a page’s reverse side. There’s even a page to cut out at the end for coloring and hanging up! Once your youngster is done, the full story may be re-read as often as you and your little one would like!

Big on heart but short on memory, Mister Mustache can always be counted on to make some silly mistakes! Simple words and hilarious, beautifully detailed illustrations tell a funny, feel-good story youngsters love to hear (or read) over and over again. They LOVE laughing at Mister Mustache’s obvious blunders and being the ones (instead of grownups, for a change) to get things right! Children and adults alike will delight in this acclaimed series and the kind, comical, immersive world of Mister Mustache!

About this Series
Mister Mustache was a kind but absent-minded fellow who would often do ordinary things in the wrong way, giving her young listener an opportunity to laugh at his silly antics and interactively instruct him on how he should properly do things instead. Today, Mister Mustache and a slate of precious supporting characters have been brought to life for a new generation of kids—in books filled with colorful illustrations and humorous details perfectly designed for studying as each story unfolds. The stories can be read out of order, but there are recurring characters whose personalities and relationships emerge and evolve over time. Mister Mustache books foster caring, helpfulness, and good manners through a light-hearted, amusing reading, listening, and viewing experience. They are lively and engaging, a lot of fun and a little bit educational, comforting in their familiarity, and never frightening to a young audience. In short, they are “funny bedtime stories they’ll love going to bed for.”
