Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes
Mem Fox
Illustrated by Helen Oxenbury 2010
For my friends who kept asking me for a children's book list...
We adore Gyo Fujikawa! Her books always bring back nice memories of my childhood (I must have had one or two of her books as a little girl) and of my own children when they were toddlers. The illustrations of children and animals are always so sweet and especially sweet is the diversity of children that she drew.
This article from the New Yorker is wonderful and makes me love her artwork even more!
(Also here's a tip, thrift stores always have her books!)
