Meet Bunso is a fun and comic-like illustrated picture book about a boy facing a spooky problem—the Mumu, the Filipino version of the Boogeyman. The Mumu punishes misbehaving kids by taking away their fun, stopping Bunso from drawing on walls, eating ice cream before dinner, or playing his brother’s video games. Determined to fight back, Bunso uncovers surprising truths about the Mumu—and himself. With lively illustrations and Filipino words sprinkled throughout, this story introduces children to Filipino culture while delivering a playful and relatable adventure.
