Illustrated by
Fred Willingham.
A brief, playful rhyming text celebrates the many things little toes can do, from tickling and digging to dancing and cuddling. "Drawing toes / Digging toes / Hidden toes / Testing toes / Splashing toes / Squishing toes / And don't forget the fishing toes." Close-ups of the feet and faces of children from a variety of ethnic backgrounds are rendered in warmly realistic pastels.
