Summary:
A continuation of Hanimals, this wordless book is a collection of whimsical photographs of hands that have been painted and arranged to make fascinating shapes. As one ABE teacher said, "I've never met an adult who wasn't intrigued by these books."
Teaching Ideas:
Family Literacy and ESL teachers could use these to provoke discussions. ABE teachers may want to use them for writing prompts. Students might simply describe what they see, or perhaps for an exercise in careful description, they could pair up, with one person describing the page through writing, while the other one finds the matching photo.
