What reviewers said
An âambiguous beingâ with a focused future makes for a fine role model.
Blob will come as a comfort to any kids who struggle with the âwhat I want to be when I grow upâ assignments. Our heroâs insistence on their right name additionally models useful behavior for kids who often have their names mispronounced.
A perfectly paced, relatable comedy sure to tickle the preschool set with its exuberant illustrations and message of self-actualization.
