Head to toes
I LOVE YOU, NOSE! I LOVE YOU, TOES! by Linda Davick. Beach Lane, 2013.
From the top of the head to the tips of the toe, this book features children who love their bodies. Different hair, skin, sizes, shapes: all are happy for all their body parts. Gently rhyming text conveys an important message about self acceptance without being didactic in the least.
