Críticas:

"Picture books with hip, quirky illustrations that are not just funny but also have plenty of heart are hard to find. The stylish "My Cousin Momo" by Zachariah OHora has it all."--The Boston Globe "OHora's story soars, encouraging acceptance and being true to yourself."--Kirkus Reviews "OHora could paint stones in the street and make them funny."--Publishers Weekly "Many children will relate to Momo's situation as he faces new surroundings and experiences and will be relieved when his cousins finally accept him for who he is."--School Library Journal "Fun details--like Momo's tiny camera and his cousin's superhero bat costume--will delight. A fab offering."--Booklist "Librarians and parents will delight in the lightly played theme of approaching the unfamiliar with an open mind."--The Horn Book "Many kids have experienced the visitor whose reality differs from the fantasy, and the book could encourage youngsters to work through their disappointment to find the value in the genuine."--BCCB

Reseña del editor:

Forrest and his sister are so excited for their cousin Momo to visit. But even though Momo is a flying squirrel, he won't fly for Forrest's friends. Plus his games are weird, and he can't even play hide-and-seek right! Momo is NOT as cool as Forrest thought he would be. But when Forrest decides to give Momo's strange ways a chance, he and his sister realize that doing things differently can be fun...almost as much fun as making a new friend.
