Cute little book

This is a cute little children's book. Nice concept of pasta. Phonemic spelling of the names of the pasta makes it fun to read to children.

Very cute illustrations and color scheme. The story itself has real value in introducing the different pasta types as well as the pronunciation of each new pasta, even I learned something!

Super Cute

My 5 year old loves her pasta book. She also has the cheese and cookie books. I've been reading this to her and her baby sister. She really enjoys the pictures and will point them out to her sister. Really fun board book for littles.

Cute but plain

This is a very cute little pasta book. It has a little rhymes in it about the different kind of pastas and their pronunciation. My kids are two and four, and they found this book to be a little boring. There wasn't enough to look at on the page. They don't understand the pronunciation part so I think a little more illustration would benefit the enjoyability for pre-readers.

Cute book

This is a very cute book that any foodie would love to read to their baby. There are 7 different pastas that are discussed in this book. The only thing I don't like is that some of the corners of the cover were peeling back. That would make me think twice before giving it as a gift. If I was in a store, I would look for it different book that didn't have the peeling.
