Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes

Product Information

During trips to the zoo, the circus, the farm and the rodeo, the baby’s absent-minded mother just can’t keep up with him. She mistakes a different critter for her son on each outing. Then she takes the animal home instead. The other super annoying part of this book is that it depicts an Inuit/Eskimo girl standing next to a freaking penguin (penguins only live in the Southern Hemisphere). My husband contends that the girl is currently living abroad with her parents, who happen to be penguin research scientists, on Antarctica, but I am less forgiving.

Great for the youngest of babies as it invites adults to talk about the pictures and to interact with their baby as they look at the book together. Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes is a 2008 children's picture book by Mem Fox and Helen Oxenbury. It is about babies, who, although they are from around the world, all share the common trait of having the same number of digits. It’s never been more obvious: some folks aren’t pulling their weight. Which brings us to the vexing question behind Susan Orlean’s first picture book: “Why don’t more babies work?” If you are looking for the very first book to read to a baby, Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes is just about perfect. Written in 2008 by Mem Fox, it features all sort of babies, from all around the world, but what they all have in common is ten tiny fingers and ten tiny toes. Each baby in this book may be “born far away” or right here “on the very next day” ,It’s worth noting that this kind of humor is generally aimed at adults. After all, grown-ups are the ones who have to worry about the practical stuff. Tailoring this theme to a young audience is tough. Sometimes “Lazy Little Loafers” talks to New Yorker-reading parents, not their children. How many 5-year-olds, for example, will respond to the humor of babies who “go out for a three-bottle lunch and get a little tipsy”? Orlean’s theme — get a purpose in life, baby! — makes for great humor. Adults live in a practical world; infants do not have immediate practical applications. Nearly three centuries ago, Jonathan Swift made the sharply satirical suggestion in “A Modest Proposal” that hungry Irish families eat their young. Ten years ago, the international press went bonkers over Japanese-invented “Baby Mops,” mop-lined garments that take advantage of crawling babies to sweep the floor. These days, the practical baby prize goes to Lisa Brown, creator of the “Baby Be of Use” board book series. Titles include “Baby, Mix Me a Drink,” “Baby Fix My Car” and “Baby Do My Banking,” which feels particularly timely.
