A '''Big & Little Boo''' is a variant of a [[Big Boo]] that appears in the sewer levels in ''[[Yoshi's Story]]''. They are named for the fact that there is one normal Big Boo, followed by [[Boo Buddy|Boo Buddies]]. Big & Little Boos would mirror the [[Baby Yoshi]]s' movements, approaching Yoshi when Yoshi came towards it. It could only be defeated by being tricked into looking away, allowing Yoshi to throw [[Yoshi Egg|eggs]] at the smaller Boos in the same manner as he would to later be able to defeat Big Boos. Each Boo Buddy group held a [[Melon]]. Big & Little Boos only appeared in [[Jelly Pipe|Stage 2-3: Jelly Pipe]].

Unlike other Boos that have red mouths, Big & Little Boos have blue mouths. They consist of one regular-sized Boo followed by [[Mini Boo|Little Boo]]s. Big & Little Boos mirror a [[Yoshi (species)|Yoshi]]'s movements, approaching it when the Yoshi comes towards them. They can be defeated by being tricked into looking away, allowing the Yoshi to throw [[Yoshi's Egg|egg]]s at the Little Boos in the same manner. Each group holds a [[melon]]. If the melon is collected, the Boos will not respawn if moved offscreen far enough. Big & Little Boos appear only in the [[Jelly Pipe]].

==Trivia==
[[File:SMW2 Big and Little Boos.png|frame]]
*Similar groups consisting of one [[Big Boo]] and a train of three smaller Boo Buddies previously appeared in ''[[Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island]]''. However, they do not mirror the Yoshi's movements, instead acting like normal Boo Buddies in a single-file line.
