4.0 out of 5 stars
my grandchildren loved the rhymes, fingerplays and illustrat,
By A Customer
This review is from: Finger Rhymes (Picture Puffins) (Paperback)
The fingerplays in Marc Browns collection are easy and well illustrated in this book. Traditional rhymes help children to feel confident in trying the fingerplays. The illustrations are also charming if you just feel like listening to the rhymes. They cause children to ask questions, think about the possible meaning of the rhymes and challenge their own imaginations.

This review is from: Finger Rhymes (Picture Puffins) (Paperback)
This book contains 14 finger rhymes, some familiar (Two Blackbirds, Eensy Weensy Spider) and some not (Fish Story, There Was a Little Turtle). Nice b&w drawings accompany the rhymes, though the finger movements themselves are in very small boxes beside the lyrics, which can make them difficult to read.

Finger Rhymes by Marc Brown,
By Dodi (Hawaii) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Finger Rhymes (Picture Puffins) (Paperback)
The pictures and words showing how to make the signs matching the song or poem are too small. The pictures are also too dull, faded gray. I was disappointed in the graphics.
