Read For Small Hands Reviews

Maria Montessori considered the hand ""the companion of the mind."" This superb book so perfectly embodies this idea, it might have been created by a Montessorian.Charming photos of children, especially the close-up photos of tiny hands working and playing, make this a delightfully engaging choice for the young child.Repetitive rhyming verse ""Hands can catch and hands can throw. Hands can plant seeds in a row."" Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Award. Board book, 24 pages.

Great book for my 15 month old grandson. It is easy for him to turn the pages and look at the great pictures. The only thing that I would have like was to have this in Spanish as well. It is a perfect book to teach both languages to the little ones.

I am giving this to the year old son of a very good friend who is a Montessori director. Beautiful book!

The toddlers in our Montessori community enjoy reading this book often; rather than saying what hands shouldn't do, this book encourages the creative and purposeful use of hands for exploring the world and enhancing relationships. Each year, the children also "see" themselves (or their friends) in the lovely, diverse photographs. This book makes a thoughtful new baby or first birthday gift.

My 2 year old son really enjoys this book. He is attracted to stories about other children and will ask for us to read it over and over again. The photography is beautiful and engaging and the text is also lovely.
