learning and growing are always a
part of Eric Carle's books. 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. It is as
if Eric Carle has again reached out
and in his special way said, “
play with me.”

Temple Universty, Pladelphia PA 19122
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 activitiesCan 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.
