I bought this for my nephew for Christmas when he was eight months old. He is now 15 months old and has it read to him every night. He loves this book. He often grabs it from his book table. It's the perfect book for small children - short, colorful and rhymey. Just remember that the book actually ends on the back cover, which I thought was a little strange. My sister has memorized this book since she reads it every night and so have I. I plan on giving this book at baby showers.

My kids got this book when they were about 6 months old. They loved the rhythm even then, and it's still one that they pick up and ask for now, at 18 months. I love it as a parent - I think the author is clever and talented!It will make much more sense, both rhythmically and logically, if you remember to include the line on the back cover as the end of the book.On some of her other books, she includes either definitions of the food or pronunciation guides - this has neither, so I may be butchering the words, but no one seems to care.

I love this book, and it has been a favorite with a few babies I know, including both of my own. I tried to order it as a gift and got a defective printing, reordered and got the same defective printing. I don't know how to find a non-defective copy. I own an older version published by Tricycle Press. The two defective copies I received are published by Alfred A. Knopf and not Tricycle. The cover shown in the listing is the old Tricycle cover, and there no indication that I would be receiving the Knopf version instead. The defects are: 1) a color scale covering the picture on page 16, and 2) a line of text left out on the last page. In the Tricycle Press version, the last line of the rhyming text is on the back cover. In the Knopf version, they added a glossary but left out the last line of the poem, so that the second to last line is left hanging and the rhythm and rhyme of the text don't work. should pull all of the defective copies. I rated the book 5 stars, but the Knopf version would get none.

Like the book says, "Someday I'll eat with chopsticks / But today just with my hands." Why should the preschool set be limited to hardened paper stock books with colors, shapes, letters, numbers and animal. Future Foodies need books like this. The graphics are bold and bright, and the rhymes are fun. With "miso in my sippy cup / tofu in my bowl", this book on your cribs will make for tickled ribs.

The original version of this board book my daughter was given years ago is great. I bought a copy last week to give as a gift for a baby shower, and I will not be giving it. I wish I'd read the reviews of the new edition - the last page is missing, so the final rhyme isn't completed. It's supposed to end, "Someday I'll eat with chopsticks, but today just with my hands." I'll be returning the two copies I bought.

This used to be a wonderful book. My kids loved it for years and it was my go-to baby present for everyone. It has a wonderful rhythm and the pictures are fun. Plus, it's funky and hip.Recently, however, I purchased a few more to have on hand for gifts and was shocked to find it had been published without its final page. All three books were missing the page that used to say: "Someday I'll eat with chopsticks, but today just with my hands." This line was the heart of the book! And also it no longer rhymes at the end! I even climbed up into my attic to pull out our old worn book to make sure I wasn't remembering it wrong. (I wasn't.)This is a huge publishing error! I contacted the publishers, but never heard back.The other downside to this new edition is that the colors on the cover are all faded, not the vibrant red, black and white that used to be so perfect for babies.So, if you love sushi and need this book for your baby, make sure you buy a vintage copy with the bright cover. Good luck!

I wasn't a huge fan of this book. The artwork was a collage style that to me seemed rather distracting. I appreciate that there are a lot of different styles of art and we should expose kids to variety but I was hoping for something a little more educational and functional and less frilly and artsy.

Thought I was ordering the book as pictured and not the re-done version. My son has every book from this series but I was ordering another in this one because the old one was torn. Newer version is not the same and son kept asking to read the back page that is no longer in the newer version.
