The Adventure of Pistachio Mustachio

By Daniel Bryson

Made me smile and filled me with happiness

This book is about a pistachio called Pistachio Mustachio, who doesn’t like his moustache as it makes him different from the rest of the nuts. Mustachio goes on an adventure where he finds other creatures who are different from the rest, all learning to embrace their differences. At the end of the trip, Mustachio is confident in himself and has learnt to embrace his uniqueness.

I liked the inclusivity and the friendship between all the other creatures, which helped them feel confident in themselves and to empower them to embrace who they are. 

Reading this book made me smile and filled me with happiness. I enjoyed the poetic, jazzy upbeat vibe. It took me on a little bit of an emotional rollercoaster, as it made me sad while the creatures were sad, and then made me happy as they embraced their differences and made friends.

There isn’t anything I didn’t like in this book, it was perfect!

This book is about how your differences make you who you are, and that you should learn to love and accept yourself as you are.

I think the best audiences for this book would be from kindergarten to year three.
