Bill Martin, John Archambault, and Ted Rand team up to compose a deceivingly simple book that acknowledges the similarities in children while at the same time validating each child's unique identity. Preschoolers will delight in the rhyming text:  "Here are my hands for catching and throwing. / Here are my feet for stopping and going." Each double-page spread highlights a different body part belonging to an ethnically diverse group of children.

A previous reviewer[1] of the original edition noted that "the featured part is sometimes lost in the gutter of the book." The board format of this edition, however, eliminates this problem; the pages fully open and lay flat. This format makes the book readily accessible for both a read-to-me and a read-by-myself. Here Are My Hands is a book that children will want to read again and again.
