No! No! Yes! Yes!
By Leslie Patricelli.
Pulling the cat’s tail? A firm NO, NO. A gentle pat on the back? A resounding YES, YES! And it’s remarkable how dramatically different the reaction is when a bowl of food is enthusiastically upended versus when a spoon is skillfully wielded. Through a series of familiar antics and their oh-so-predictable outcomes, an expressive baby navigates the dos and don’ts of everyday life in this charming board book—earning it a giant, enthusiastic YES!
