This book is a great way for kids to learn so many things: foods,colors, numbers, sizes, etc. I read it to my KG students and they loved it! Make sure you have an interactive prop to go with the story, it will make it more enjoyable!
Great young children's book that let's the reader become involved. With different colors and different foods, this book is visually appealling for kid's who are just starting to read.
