Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes by Mem Fox, illustrated by Helen Oxenbury

From chapters.ca:
As everyone knows, "nothing" is sweeter than tiny baby fingers and chubby baby toes. ...And here, from two of the most gifted picture-book creators of our time, is a celebration of baby fingers, baby toes, and the joy they - and the babies they belong to - bring to everyone, everywhere, all over the world. This is a gorgeously simple picture book for very young children, and once you finish the rhythmic, rhyming text, all you'll want to do is go back to the beginning...and read it again The luminous watercolour illustrations of these roly-poly little ones from a variety of backgrounds are adorable, quirky, and true to life, right down to the wrinkles, dimples, and pudges in their completely squishable arms, legs, and tummies.
