From Head to Toe is no exception, but is perhaps exceptional in the added dimension of literally ‘moving’ through this book. Not only can children listen, imagine, discover, feel,and think, but now they can also be a part of the action. Itis as if Eric Carle has again reached out and in his special way said, ‘Come play with me. Dr. Marianne Trbert, Deco The Leonard Gordan Institute for Human Developmen Temple Un About this book, Eric Carle says: “Just as alphabet books introduce the very young child to letters and simple words, From Head to Toe, through a playful and rhythmic question-and-answer word game, introduces that same child to the basic body parts and simple body movements. “And in the same way that a child progresses from understanding simple words to reading and writing more complex words, sentences and stories, so he or she will progress from making simple body movements to dancing, doing exercises, perform- ing gymnastics, and participating with confidence and pleasure in sports and other activities.”Can you wave your arms like a monkey, clap your hands like a seal or stomp like an elephant? Yes, you can! Are you ready? Here we go! Move yourself From Head to Toe. a 7% , BOOKSELLERS Paral sen 0-14-056378-4 ux £500 or 8 780140856378
