Product Description
Learning about opposites has never been more fun - or funny - than with this winning board book. Yummy!
Spaghetti is yummy, but worms - and blue crayons, and sand, and other things too gross to mention - are definitely yucky when tasted. Amiably illustrated in a bright, graphic style, Leslie Patricelli’s spirited board book, YUMMY YUCKY stars an obliging, bald, and very expressive toddler who acts out each pair of opposites with comically dramatic effect.

I love this author-- we have a few of her other books such as Big, Little and Quiet, Loud. My 16 month old daughter absolutely adores them. I was disappointed by the content of this particular book. Things such as chicken, fish sticks, hamburgers, cookies and chocolate sauce are illustrated as being "yummy". We happen to be vegetarian so I wish I had known about the animals listed as food items. But beyond that, listing chocolate sauce, cookies and ice cream for this age group is risky. I don't plan on introducing those things to her diet yet so I'm planning on returning the book to Amazon. I think the content should be a bit more baby/toddler friendly, and a bit more health conscious. How about listing apple sauce as yummy instead of chocolate sauce?
 My 22 month old loves this book May 24, 2008
This book is LOVED by my 22 month old daughter. We read it several times a day. This is the 2nd Patricelli book I've purchased (We own Big Little...another favorite of hers) and the illustrations are precious and the content very relatable for a toddler.
Oh, gosh... Just so funny and cute! May 20, 2008
Leslie Patricelli really knows how to read little kids' reactions to words and concepts. Her illustrations are simple but hilarious.
Everything about this book makes it a winner, and adults or older kids will LOVE sharing it with tots.
Definitely buy this one if there's a new baby in your circle!
Should have veggies as a YUMMY May 15, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I really like the idea of this book, but with all the obesity in kids and in America today, ice cream and cupcakes should not be on the 'yummy' pages of this book. Not that they aren't yummy, but peas, spinach or fresh fruit should be listed as yummy. I was just disappointed that with so many weight issues, and I'm trying to raise my baby to love his veggies (which he does), it's a bummer books like this don't exemplify healthy nutritious eating.
Fun for the whole family April 7, 2008
I bought my 2yo daughter Yummy Yucky as well as Binky, and Blankie. This is our favorite. My 7yo son, my husband, and I all enjoy applying our yummy and yucky detection to other aspects of life. Although the part about Mommy's coffee being yucky is difficult for my daughter because she has acquired a taste for the "yucky" stuff. The others...sand, worms, smelly socks...we all seem to agree on. You will enjoy this book. It would make a great shower gift for new parents.
