Sanger, Amy Wilson, Yum Yum Dim Sum, Tricycle Press, 16 pgs., board book.
Description: Sanger describes the parts of a dim sum meal for young children. She uses rhymes to introduce children to the names of various dishes.
Review: Yum Yum Dim Sum creatively introduces young kids to the ritual of dim sum by using pictures of fabrics, paper and paint to portray the food. With purple paint oozing through a steamed bun made of gauze, the dim sum doesn't look much like real food. Rather, it has the loo...more

i have this as a board book. fun rhymes to either expand a child's understanding of this delicious chinese food or to provide a child with the opportunity to see his/her own culture in print! either way, priceless. found this book at reading terminal market in philadelphia. plan to send it home as a "family fun" book.
Looking for a book to introduce preschoolers to ethnic food? Yum Yum Dim Sum is a good choice. With Ehlert-like illustration/montage and fun rhymes, "weird" food becomes appealing. Sturdy board book pages makes it nearly indestructible, so bring the volume along with you to the restaurant for comparison!
I love this book! It was a gift for my daughter, and we have read it over and over again. It's so exciting for her to read about the items that we see on the dim sum cart. Such a cute and creative book.
My favorite of the World Snacks series, and great to bring with you for first timers at dim sum! Mmmmm don tots!

Funny little book. I love dim sum.
Year One Point Five Plus: It's "hot!" Our little one likes to repeat facially expressive and easy, fun-sounding words. Of course, reading it also makes me very hungry for dim sum.
A cute, rhyming exposure to dim sum. The Whirl Girl never got into this one too much, probably partly because it's a board book and it felt like a baby book to her. I think it would be a fun one to bring to a Chinese restaurant to read there.
You gotta love a children's book about dim sum. It's totally random and weird. The words are not that clever, but the whole idea of this book cracks me up.
Fun fun book I got to read to my nephew, Alex. It contains cute lines such as: my my shu mai, why do I love you so?
Such a cute book.
