Bookroo's summary

Join a diverse group of children as they explore their bodies in a playful, rhyming journey. From eyes to toes, each page invites young readers to learn and celebrate the universal connections that unite us all. With bold illustrations and engaging text, this book encourages creativity and discovery in the youngest of minds.

From the publisher

Ideally suited to the board-book format, Here Are My Hands invites very young children to respond spontaneously and creatively as they learn the parts of the body. The rhyming text and bold illustrations do more than name the eyes, ears, nose, and toes. By featuring children of many different backgrounds, the book quietly celebrates the commonality of people around the world.
