Synopsis

For the littlest fans of that favorite Japanese finger food comes a sturdy board book sure to inspire giggles (and even some growling stomachs!). Sanger's mixed media and cut-paper collages are an ideal accompaniment to her bouncy rhyming text sure to captivate even the most finicky eaters. Whether a temaki know-it-all or clueless about ebi, FIRST BOOK OF SUSHI is a welcome side-dish for nori experts and novices of all ages.

Excerpt

I see take-out tekka maki,
kappa maki packed to go.

Temaki-style hand roll
with uni urchin roe.

Miso in my sippy cup,
tofu in my bowl.
