Review for Eyes, Nose, Belly, Toes

Eyes, Nose, Belly, Toes My First Human Body Book by Krupa Bhojani Playforth MD + Becky Paige, Kids exploring the world, picture book, non-fiction, cuteI received this book from Netgalley/the publisher in exchange of an honest review.

I just couldn’t resist this adorable looking book. Just look at that cover! So cute!

I normally don’t tend to read introductions (have read a few that were either boring, or spoiled the book which in this case wouldn’t apply, but you get why I skip them normally), but thought I would do for this one, and I am happy I did. Because it was a good read. About development, toddlers, psychology, and more.

Then the book starts with an introduction and then dives into the different parts and what they do, like your nose with which you can smell (and sneeze but that isn’t mentioned, though it would have been fun). Like that your face has all sorts of extra parts. Like eyes. Or hair (which comes indeed in those colours, but also grey (when older) or in many other colours of the rainbow). And from the head we go down and down all the way to your toes! Thanks to this book I got the song Head, Shoulders, Knees in my head again. 🤣 I really liked that we didn’t just go randomly through the body instead did bit by bit moving lower and lower. It was a really positive and fun book and really highlighted all the good things that your body can do. Which made me very happy, I could use some positivity in my body right now. I loved seeing the kids discovers their body and all they could do it (so much exploring, so much playing). I also loved that this book, at least at times, encouraged kids to do something. Like for instance touch your head, count your toes. So fun!

The art was really fun, colourful, and playful, and I just love how diverse it was. We don’t just get kids that are white/blonde, but all hair colours + skin colours. There are kids wearing glasses and a kid in a wheelchair.

All in all, this is one book that I would highly recommend. Oodles of fun and I am sure toddlers/kids will love it~

Star rating, 4 stars
