Momo and Mumu

Momo and Mumu, Plop! (volume 1)

 

Two babies, one pacifier... and a lot of laughter! 

When Mumu cries, Momo offers a toy. When Momo cries, Mumu tries in turn. But what they both really want… is the same pacifier! From misunderstandings to bursts of laughter, emotions flow, gestures mirror each other, and an unexpected exchange finally brings peace.

A tender story, built like a visual and musical nursery rhyme, that perfectly captures the dynamics of toddlerhood: trial and error, mimicry, frustration - and those very first steps toward sharing.

 

Mumu copies Momo (volume 2)

 

Two babies, a game of imitation… and a bond that leads to a tender surprise. Mumu and Momo are inseparable twin babies.

 

They watch each other and copy eachother in this universal game that sparks their very first discoveries. Their bond deepens until an unexpected surprise - a bird hidden in a sock -  transforms their story into a burst of poetry.

A joyful and tender board book that celebrates the magic of little discoveries and the wonder of growing together.
