From School Library Journal
Kindergarten-Grade 3-- A compilation of lists of noses, hands, feet, eyes, knees, and bellies--what they do, where they go, and whose they are. While at first the lists may seem quite ordinary, they will draw readers in with their simple rhymes and rhythm. Multiethnic children and a variety of creatures weave around the four-line groups of text, expanding it with their antics. Colors ranging from bright shades to pastels are softly outlined. The book is not without its flaws, however. Sometimes a picture misses the mark, as a baby floating in a bubble has no obvious relation to "noses," and the rhymes are occasionally strained. Because children will need time to match picture and happening, this is a one-on-one or independent-reading title. While not so wildly imaginative as Rosen's earlier books, it could prompt children to see these body parts "Wiggle, wiggle, Jiggle, Jiggle, Hop, Hop, Pop, Pop, Knobble, knobble, Wobble, wobble." --Jane Saliers, Atlanta-Fulton Public Library
