About Hands Can
Product Description Hands can do all kinds of things! A rhyming text with eye-catching color photos offers just the encouragement young children need to explore their world — hands on. Hands can hold things. Hands can mold things. Hands can catch and hands can throw. Hands can do much more, of course — wave hello and goodbye, play peekaboo, touch things, clap, even tie a shoe. For the very young, hands are a never-ending source of discovery and a means of mastery in an ever-unfolding world. With singsong rhythm, simple design, and alluring color photos of toddlers, Hands Can invites the littlest readers to discover the many things hands can do. Review Children are sure to reach for this book again and again. —Scholastic Parent & Child This inviting offering provides youngsters with an almost sensory experience in which they can appreciate how their hands help them to explore and interact with their world. —School Library Journal From the Publisher Now as a sturdy board book, Hands Can is an ideal book for encouraging little ones to explore their world - hands on! The simple design, and alluring color photographs of toddlers - just like them - makes this the perfect addition to a young one's first library. From the Author Cheryl Willis Hudson says, "I was amazed by the versatility, dexterity, utility, and even the gracefulness of such small fingers. I began to see hands as marvelous works of art, and I wanted to somehow capture that vision in a children's book." John-Francis Bourke says, "Photographing people provides me with a constant stream of new faces, new words, new conversation - it never gets old. Photographing children gives you all that, plus innocence and curiosity. Wonderful!"
