Simple, repetitive text with bright art and an interactive element.

From Head to Toe is a wonderful picture book that encourages movement. Kids too can stretch and bend and kick like the animals do! This is a perfect book for interactive storytime and one that encourages imaginative play. Carle's trademark artwork is on display here as well. He illustrated his works through collage, using hand-painted papers, which he cut and layered to form bright and colourful images that really "pop" on the page. Kids love this book, and I bet you will too. Suitable for all ages but toddlers and preschoolers really get a big kick out of this one. ( )

#1508 in our old book database. Rated: Good.

A nice book for little ones that introduces different animals and body parts and allows for fun imitation of different movements if you want to make reading time an active event. ( )

Interactive book, big bright pictures, great conversations about body parts and body movements! Great to use as a read aloud in kindergarten classroom or as a part on an Eric Carle author study! ( )

This is a great resource when teaching a lesson about the human body and movement. Great way to engage students.
