This boos is super cute. It’s hard to find books that are food positive that aren’t teachy. This is good for my picky eater to help me read funny positive books and we can use it as ways to get my son comfortable with tacos, spicy foods and all the Ingredients. A few pages sorta seemed maybe like it was missing a page but it doesn’t mess with the overall book. Super cute and funny and my almost 4 year old loves this book.
Here's all you need to know: after buying this for my 1yo's birthday and reading it to both of my kids, we bought dragon PJs for our 1yo and 2yo. I joked that the 1yo was a dragon, and the 2yo proudly announced that she was a taco...because dragons love tacos. Adorable story, I like that it's a little bit wordier than board books because our toddlers LOVE a story. The photos are engaging, and the tale is, above all - memorable. Can't say enough good things!
