Editorial Reviews:

As everyone knows, nothing is sweeter than tiny baby fingers and chubby baby toes. . . . And here, from two of the most gifted picture-book creators of our time, is a celebration of baby fingers, baby toes, and the joy they—and the babies they belong to—bring to everyone, everywhere, all over the world!

          This is a gorgeously simple picture book for very young children, and once you finish the rhythmic, rhyming text, all you’ll want to do is go back to the beginning . . . and read it again! The luminous watercolor illustrations of these roly-poly little ones from a variety of backgrounds are adorable, quirky, and true to life, right down to the wrinkles, dimples, and pudges in their completely squishable arms, legs, and tummies.

Summary: Nice lesson.
Comment: Love the lesson behind this story. However, this book is probably best for toddlers and up because (1) the book isn't built for a lot of wear and tear and (2) the pictures aren't brightly colored and don't capture the attention of infants - at least not my nephew. Otherwise, good book for kids.

Summary: Beautiful book!
Comment: This is a lovely book, and makes a great "new baby" gift! Rhymes and repetition make it a favorite of my 18-month old. Illustrations are beautiful!

Summary: disappointed
Comment: I sent this product back as I did not receive what I needed/wanted and they sent me the same thing so I kept it. I wanted this same book for a baby in a "Board Book" but I got a hard bound book which isn't appropriate for young children.
I love the book and the author that is why I chose this book.

Summary: Great choice for a baby shower
Comment: Fun to read with the new baby - older siblings get into the rhyme as well

Summary: Thank you, Mem and Helen, for coming out of retirement one last time!
Comment: Dear little babies with their characteristically busy little fingers and stubby little playdough toes delight the reader with their realism. Thank you, Helen Oxenbury! A singalong rhythm that is "easy to read to" encourages the listener to join in after a couple of repeats. Thank you, Mem Fox!

Although these two gifted women had "retired", this book, and the Baby World, is as fresh and light-hearted as these babies are. Focusing on the similarities rather than the differences, their message of peace is tenderly and subtly played. I can't wait to give this as a baby gift!
