Yum Yum by Mara Bergman
Katie, James and their little dog Harry are in the kitchen baking, and too busy to notice a succession of animals creep in through the window, until Crash Bash, Crash Bash a Bear storms in! A fabulous rhythmic read aloud picture book from the award-winning team behind Snip Snap!Fun! We really enjoyed reading this book as the words are so very animated and [my child] quickly learned to join in with the words
[My child] loves the story and really enjoys joining in.
Amusing, noisy and engaging

"Fun, exciting and kept my childrens interest until the end of the book" Melissa, parent
"My child loved it! She smiled and was interested throughout, and interacted by making animal sounds!" Melissa, parent
