Yummy! Eating through a day Poems selected by Lee Bennett Hopkins and Illustrated by Renee Flower

Yummy! Eating through a day Poems selected by Lee Bennett Hopkins and Illustrated by Renee Flower
This book was very cute, and the illustrations were great. All of the objects like the bowls, eggs, and cheese, had faces on them which is actually great for kids because they think everything has feelings and that everything is real life like dolls and toys. You have to use your imagination while reading this book. The illustrations use bright colors and a lot of design which creates a textured look. The people in the illustrations have green skin which is a unique but neat idea.
Each page has a poem written by a different person. They are all about foods, starting with breakfast and ending with dinner and desert. There is a good variety of poems, some are long and some are very short. The rhymes flow well which calls for a great read aloud book. My favorite poem was called Jell-o Cups. It was about jello jigglers dancing. It was a descriptive and fun poem.
