About The Book

Friendly monsters teach parts of the body and indulge in a silly dance in this Sandra Boynton board book classic.

A trio of monsters shake and shimmy whatever they’ve got in this rhyming tale about the different parts of the body. Boynton’s whimsical and hilarious take on another toddler-friendly concept is sure to be read again and again.

Yes, we’ve each got ten toes
and we’ve each got one nose…
And we’ve all got two eyes
that can open and close.

Sandra Boynton is a popular American cartoonist, children’s author, songwriter, producer, and director. Since 1974, Boynton has written and illustrated over seventy-five children’s books and seven general audience books, including five New York Times bestsellers. More than 85 million of her books have been sold, “mostly to friends and family,” she says. She has also written (with Michael Ford) and produced six albums of renegade children’s music. Three of her six albums have been certified Gold (over 500,000 copies sold) and Philadelphia Chickens, nominated for a Grammy, has been certified Platinum (over 1 million copies sold). Boynton has also directed twelve music videos of her songs, including the award-winning “One Shoe Blues” starring B.B. King, “Alligator Stroll” starring Josh Turner, and “Tyrannosaurus Funk” (animated) sung by Samuel L. Jackson. She lives in rural New England, and her studio is in a barn with perhaps the only hippopotamus weathervane in America.
