*BOOKTRUST 100 BEST BOOKS 0-5*
Nothing is sweeter, as everyone knows, than tiny baby fingers and chubby baby toes!
All over the world, babies are different. Yet in some ways they are very much the same: each one has ten little fingers and ten little toes – to play with, to tickle, to wave. And each child is very, very special to its parents…
With Mem Fox's gently rhyming text illustrated by internationally beloved artist Helen Oxenbury, illustrator of the classic nursery join-in picture books We’re Going on a Bear Hunt and Oh Dear, Look What I Got!, Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes will fast become the essential book for baby playtime – and the perfect gift for a new arrival!
“A true celebration of diversity that will engage parents and children alike.” Evening Standard
“An instant classic ... there's real magic at work here.” Publisher’s Weekly
“A perfect book for introducing young children to the music and rhythm of language and showing them how to read images.” Sunday Times
