Wiggle My Toes and other action rhymes
Illustrated by Nick Sharratt
(Puffin Books)
32pp, 978-0140567724, RRP £5.99, Paperback
Under 5s Pre-School/Nursery/Infant
Nineteen new rhymes featuring such things as bees, boots, bears, bubbles, sandcastles, swings and scarecrows, illustrated with a variety of jolly animal characters jumping, tumbling, trumpeting, tending and toe wiggling. There are lots of humorous touches in Sharratt's bold, bright pictures which add much to the variable quality of the rhymes. Parents and carers of babies and toddlers will find the four final pages containing illustrated instructions for the actions to perform on or with tinies useful. The book certainly offers a vehicle for combining important elements of early learning: the kinaesthetic, verbal and visual.
