This is a book about all of the wonderful things you can do with your toes. Babies and toddlers are usually fascinated with their toes at some point in their life. This book pays tribute to the incredible things babies and adults can do with their toes. You can rub doggy bellies with your toes, you can put miniature clothes on your toes, you can draw with your toes, and you can even make shadow puppets with your toes!

This book allows children to think of the many ways our feet can be used aside from running and jumping. The illustrations in this book are phenomenal. Every curve, wrinkle, and vein in each pair of feet is drawn to the T. I gave this 4 stars for it's simplicity. It gives the reader a sense of fun and "I can do that" feeling.
This is good for a thematic unit on body parts. If you were to do different body part every day then this could be read on the "feet" day. Along with this book is C.W, Bowi...more

PB37. This was one of my son's favorite books when he was a tot and I enjoyed reading it to him. One may wonder what's the excitement of a book about toes...the pictures. The pictures of toes and kids playing with their toes are priceless.
Toes are shown to do so many things - great for your littles to discover those important body parts.

Great book for self awareness and the things our body parts do for us. Fantastic illustrations. This is a good lap book for infants and toddlers. Small groups may enjoy taking off their shoes and looking at their toes.
All kinds of toes: Big, little, open, closed, waving, tickling, doggy-tummy-rubbing, drawing, digging, hidden, testing, splashing, squishing,fishing, tippy, dancing, tasting, counting, pick-up, pushing, wearing teeny clothes (?), soapy, shadow, tired, tent, kissing, cuddling, loving, and goodnight. Some were a bit far-fetched. The book was a little long. Would have been cuter if they had just stuck to the reasonable toe-likenesses!
