I like Helen Oxenbury's board books for very young children. They are very simple but have fun text and they do a lovely job of portraying different babies on each page. It's so nice to see diversity in these pictures of little ones having fun.
This particular picture book didn’t say much. It had really cute pictures
in it of different kids doing different things getting ready for bed after
they played in the mud all day.
When I read this to my daughter she giggle at the pictures and wanted
to tickle me when we read the last page. She hates getting her hair
brushed, so when they mentioned brushing your hair she said no no
no. It was a neat book to read before bed.
In the classroom after we read this book I would probably have the kids
sit down into a circle. When they got into the circle we would sing head
and shoulders knees and toes. I would let them be silly with the game.

I liked this, Peter hated it, and it was over Liam's head.
This book uses adjectives to describe activities young children experience when playing outside, in the tub, and getting their hair brushed.
