This book give children a look at the parts that make up our bodies and what they are used for. A sweet explanation of body parts in a rhyming text. Some highlights are, 'Here are my cheeks for kissing blushing' and 'Here are my knees for falling down'. Every child can connect with some of the statements about the body parts. Charming multicultural illustrations show similarities between people of all backgrounds. A wonderful lesson to learn at an early age. ( )

A good book for young children learning body parts and getting used to responding to books. Enjoyed the book. Good for 1st grade.

Good rhymes identifying all the different parts of the body for younger children. This would be a great book to buy and read often enough that your child has the rhyme memorized about all the different body parts. ( )

My son and daughter (14 months) love this book! It has great simple rhymes, and is nice for talking about body parts (where they are on characters and on you). Plus the pictures are simple and engaging. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0805011684, Paperback)

Ideally suited to the board-book format, Here Are My Hands invites very young children to respond spontaneously and creatively as they learn the parts of the body. The rhyming text and bold illustrations do more than name the eyes, ears, nose, and toes. By featuring children of many different backgrounds, the book quietly celebrates the commonality of people around the world.
