Little hands 

The baby’s little hand swings back and forth and a bird flies by. It raises a little finger and says no, no, no. It raises all its little fingers and beholds, so it goes bye, bye, bye… ‘Little Hands’ is a book with a short text and surprising illustrations that invite the baby to interact with the book and their own hands, as well as the participation of the adult, who will also love to follow this fun reading.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT… This book is friendly to readers with dyslexia, as the font used is Open Dyslexic, making reading more enjoyable for everyone. The text is in capital letters, which also helps readers who are in the process of becoming literate.
WHY READ IT? The book’s illustrations, delicate and funny, are all in white, black, and yellow – all colors related to the development of a baby’s visual perception. The illustrations encourage babies to play and perceive their own little hands.
THEMES: baby book, children’s play, baby’s development, shadow play, family reading.
