Babymouse is a larger-than-life character, and it’s easy to see the appeal of her series with its many wild imaginary scenarios (which were weirdly pastiche-y) coupled with relatable real-world experiences. I expected a little more fallout from Babymouse’s “forgotten” book report, but since the focus of the story is on friendship and not homework, I’m willing to forgive the oversight.
I feel no urge to read anymore Babymouse ever though. Like the fairy books, I'm glad I know what it's about, but this is a title best left to the kids.
