“Keeping both text and graphics to a minimum, Carle proves once again just how effective simplicity can be. – by Lisa Smith, School Library Journal, April, 1997 A nice addition to a toddler storytime, but it may get lost as it’s cataloged in 613.7.”
There is no story-rather the book is an invitation to get everyone moving. The repetitive text has the animal stating the movement and asking, “Can you do it?” Each child responds, “I can do it!” Carle’s vivid cut-paper collages are striking and invite sharing individually or with a group. A giraffe bends its neck, a monkey waves its arms, etc.
“PreS - Animals and multiethnic children illustrate various body movements on large, double-page spreads. – by Michele Landberg, Parenting, May, 1997 This upbeat book is designed to get kids moving-learning names of body parts and rejoicing in their own competence.” “In brilliantly colored collages, a parade of animals challenges children to imitate simple physical actions. Just as alphabet books introduce letters and simple words, From Head to Toe introduces the basic body parts and simple body movements – the ABC’s of dancing, gymnastics, and other sports activities. As young children copy the antics of Eric Carle’s animals, they’ll learn such important skills as careful listening, focusing attention, and following instructions.
