Reviews"I really liked this book because I love my daddy. He is the best daddy ever because he does everything like teach me things that are so funny!" --Angelina, Age 9, 5girlsbookreviews.blogspot.com, "The Tyrannosaurus looks more like a stylized Godzilla than a recognizable dino in the simply drawn pictures, but his toothy fierceness and the extreme size differential between him and tiny 'Yummy' ably capture the episode's essential features. Bold lines and strong color contrasts (plus the odd exploding volcano) give the prehistoric landscape plenty of visual appeal too." --Vicky Smith, Kirkus Reviews "It's a discussion prompt. Why did he do that? Where is he going? Our preschooler loves drilling down into these questions even when they're challenging and we're not mendacious enough to be sly. If yours is the same, this is the book for you." --Michael, thedinglehopper.wordpress.com "There's more text per page than I would have expected for a book aimed at this age group, but it is perfectly primed for read-aloud and the comic-style illustrations and format are incredibly engaging to look at. I absolutely melted at the twist at the end of the story, too. It was a fantastic way to finish a funny, memorable book." --Bruce Gargoyle, thebookshelfgargoyle.wordpress.com "Children will be instantly attracted to Miyanishi's illustrations. Throughout its pages, there are artistic touches like a white sky, coloring outside the edges to make the images pop, and hash marks for the dinos that serve as texture 101." --Justin Tadaldi, JQ Magazine, "The most interesting thing about this book is the ending. It is a happy ending, but a different kind of happy ending we are used to. Be aware that it could seem a little sad at the first moment, but at the same time will bring a great chance to talk about why this is actually a happy ending." --Sandra Lema, reviewsinchalk.blogspot.com, "The Tyrannosaurus looks more like a stylized Godzilla than a recognizable dino in the simply drawn pictures, but his toothy fierceness and the extreme size differential between him and tiny 'Yummy' ably capture the episode's essential features.

The ending of this odd-couple tale will melt your heart." --chopsticksny.com "Overall the tone is a mixture of silly, sad, and serious, and yet the style augments this with a range of subtler feelings, showing hints of a father's concern and pride . . . A beautiful and unforgettable tale that touches the heart." --Rachel Forbes, School Library Journal " The ending is cute and what is needed for a happily ever after. This is for young ones and doesn't take long to read. Just be prepared for the kids to act silly afterwards." --Jo Ann Hakola, ioba.org "Where to Read--In bed, before going to sleep, so that your fresh memory of the dinosaurs' world may lead you there in your dreams. Becoming the one to be told, 'I can't wait to be just like you' (a line from one of the stories), must be a heart-purifying experience." --Mai Niimi, the-japan-news.com, "I think probably the best children's book I have read all year!" --Jezire Akin, readjezireread.blogspot.com, " You Look Yummy! Is an utterly endearing story that touched my heart; and I can see why it's an international best seller. It's the best picture book for boys I've seen all year." --Susan Roberts, books4thecuriouschild.com, "The Tyrannosaurus looks more like a stylized Godzilla than a recognizable dino in the simply drawn pictures, but his toothy fierceness and the extreme size differential between him and tiny 'Yummy' ably capture the episode's essential features.

Far too many books starring these behemoth beings seem to loom over my desk. That said, every once in a (long) while, I discover an irresistible prehistoric beast with a story that just melts even my cynical old heart." --Terry Hong, smithsonianapa.org, "I found it to be really cute and a story that I'm sure my son will enjoy. It would be prefect for a bedtime story or just any story time. I would recommend this book for small children, under 7." --dealsandreviewsblog.wordpress.com, "I found it to be really cute and a story that I'm sure my son will enjoy.
