Hand, Hand, Fingers, Thumb (Big Bright & Early Board Book)

I have three children, let's start with the 14 year old who thirteen years ago loved this the best from his 50 strong dr suess library. I read this book twenty plus times a day to him and now at 14 he can still remember it. Is it anything to do with the fact he is now a percussionist studying for his grade 8 who knows. he was also reading by the age of three much to his nursery teachers amazement.Our second child hated dr suess, she is now 12 and has struggled non stop with reading, her spelling is also awful.Now onto our third child at one she also loves dr suess. Should I start saving for the percussion lessons now.Great book, simple but different than any other book you will read, dr suess doesn't always make sense but neither does the outside world. Kids love it and so do we as parents. May the day be filled with many more monkeys drumming on drums.

Love it

as you would expect great little book, granddaughter loves singing along. Her dad loves reminiscing, he enjoyed when he was young - standing the test of time!

I bought this book for my two year old and every time I read it to him, as soon as I got to the end he'll shout out - "again, again, again". I never got away without reading it cover to cover at least fives times before convincing him it was enough. Luckily, it's a quick, fun read and infectiously rhythmic. Don't be surprised if at random moments, on your own, you find yourself quietly muttering, 'hands, hands, fingers...

A great book - my daughter loves drumming on the book with me and the rhythm of it settles her to sleep if she's restless. One of my best buys.

My daughter loved this book; it's such fun! I bought this copy for her young nephew. He's a bit young yet but I'm sure this book will be a hit.

We have a copy of this book which my daughter read nearly 40 years ago. Our visiting 18 month grandson loved it so much he had to have his own! The rythmn and repetition of the words make it memorable for small children. What a pity it is no longer in print, but what joy to find a second-hand copy.

Fun.
