Customer Reviews

A great book....

As a preschool teacher I am always looking for good books to share with my children....and this is a great one!! Any book that holds the attention of 15 three year olds is a book worthy of reading....And when they pull it off the bookshelf themselves and "read" it to each other, you know you have a great one. Good for practicing counting and good for the imagination .

We Love This Book!

We love this clever, gorgeous book. All kids can relate to the parental lament "I only have two arms." Karen Kaufman Orloff helps children imagine a world without that limitation, while she captures the special feeling of the parent-child bond. Pete Whitehead's pictures are vivid and fun. Counting the arms and finding the numbers brings lot of giggles. We have given this book as a gift for several children ages 3-7 and they all love it too.

Fun Counting Book!

This is the perfect counting book for slightly older kids. My daughter and I got such a kick out of the fun rhymes, clever illustrations, and counting all those arms! Her favorite part is if Mom had fourteen arms - 'she'd control the arcade!' IF MOM HAD THREE ARMS is a funny and delightful new book. Highly recommended for ages 4-8.
