Eyes, Nose, Fingers, and Toes: A First Book All About You

By Judy Hindley

Book Overview

Peekaboo! From a blink and a wink of their eyes, to a wiggle of their shoulders, to a stomp of their feet, a group of lovable toddlers joyfully explores the many ways to use their bodies. Readers are invited to join in the fun of learning all the moves our bodies are able to make-and how, for instance, lips can be made small for kissing or stretched wide for a smile, while arms can go up and down, side to side, and can reach out to hug those we love. Judy Hindley's jaunty text and Brita Granstrom's playful illustrations are perfect for children as they begin to discover the wonders of their bodies and the joy of learning to move.

Customer Reviews

Delightful Read

After checking out this book at our library three times, I decided to finally buy this book for my one year old. We read the book daily, and she now mimics the children in the book. As we come to the appropriate page, she plays peek-a-boo, claps, holds up one finger to count along, and blows kisses to the children in the book. It's rare to find a children's book so well written.

EXCELLENT!

This book has been my 18 month old's favorite for about six months now! She anticipates every page and we do movements along with the story. Most of it rhymes really well...and it is FUN to read with her. I would recommend this book for the 9 months-2 year old crowd. You won't be disappointed if you love reading with your children!

Great for introducing body parts

My 13 month old has just started learning body parts and thinks this book is WONDERFUL! So far she can point to her nose, ears and mouth. I think it is too hard for pre this age but I expect to get a lot of use out of it for many years to come!

Love this book

My Son is 19 months old and he LOVES this book! We first checked it out from the library, but we HAD to buy it, he like it so much.

A beautiful book of children

This book is a beautiful journey for your baby and preschoolerabout all those body parts that they love to identify- ears, and noseand toes etc. Further, the illustrations are large and inviting. The most wonderful part of this book is that the children are black and white and asian- they all have noses and ears and eyes, but they don't all look alike. The children look like all of us- different and beautiful. This book conveys more then where your nose is- through illustrations, it introduces and reinforces for our children that everyone is different and that these differences are beautiful and important END
