Editorial Reviews

Product Description

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. Learning about opposites has never been more fun - or funny - than with this winning board book. Yummy!


From the Author

Leslie Patricelli lives in Seattle, Washington, with her husband, their two children, and two kitties. She sketched out her first children’s book, YUMMY YUCKY, when her then one-year-old son was putting everything in his mouth. "After hearing myself say ‘yucky!’ or ‘yummy!’ for months on end, this book seemed to write itself," she says. "Talking to and watching my young children all day gave me a voice and inspiration for these books. I write down what I say to them and what they say to me."

5.0 out of 5 stars Boogers are yucky!, September 21, 2005
By Joe'sMom (Ayer, MA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
I got this book for my shower along with the Quiet/Loud book. Now that my son is a year old, we've only recently gotten interested in these books. I do understand others' comments about not wanting to introduce boogers and earwax, but really why not? They're not bad things... they're just yucky. While my son is still a little young to really get the humor of this book (it really is very funny), he loves the colors and the pictures of the baby on each page. And I think he does get the concept of things that are yummy (we make yummy noises at every meal) vs things that are yucky (every time he goes to put something he shouldn't into his mouth, I repeat "that's yucky. we don't eat that)
All things considered, an entertaining and unique children's board book.

5.0 out of 5 stars A fun read for both kids and parents, February 9, 2005
We introduced this book to my toddler at an age when he was eating sand in the sandbox and grabbing pretty much anything else he could get into his mouth. This book was a fun way to explain why we don't eat sand, kitty litter, or worms. He loves this book, and we do too! We all always laugh out loud when reading it. The illustrations are really colorful and bold, and the text is downright funny. Some people are offended by the advice not to eat earwax or boogers, but if you think it's not bad to warn a toddler about that (or even funny!) then your family will love this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars We Heart Yummy Yucky, November 25, 2004
This review is from: Yummy Yucky (Board book)
We have a blast reading this book - it cracks my kid up everytime! Leslie's illustrations are bright and textural, and the baby character is hilarious! We've read all three of her books over and over. I see that there are a couple more coming out soon -- looking forward to reading them as well!
