Vegetable Friends

My nephew, who is about to turn 3, absolutely loves this book. He knows the names of all the vegetables, and when he's eating, he'll joke around saying that he's eating "Moy Mushroom" or "Charles Brocolli". When I first read the book, I wasn't very impressed. The pictures are cute, but not great. The text is a little too matter of fact. I did like the names given to the vegetables, though. I was surprised to find that it was a favorite of my nephew's, since he has all kinds of award-winning books to choose from. I guess that just proves that what an adult might find disinteresting, might be just what a kid wants to read!
