A fun read-aloud that teaches kids about their bodies while searching for the ever-elusive belly button.

I can find my eyes
I can find my nose
I can find my fingers
And can find my toes

I cannot find my belly button
There’s a hole where it goes!

Follow along with this playful read-aloud as a child looks everywhere for their belly button but can’t seem to find it! Until big sister comes to reveal the big secret: some are ＂innies＂ and some are ＂outies＂! I Cannot Find My Belly Button is a great way to practice naming all of the parts of the body while having some silly, rhyming fun.

Eva Treistman (writing as E.D. Smith) has had a passion for storytelling and rhyme since she could speak. She has published various poems in Highlights on the road to caring for her father with Alzheimer’s and having her own special needs child, and she has finally arrived in a place where she can focus on publishing. Eva lives with her husband, Greg, daughter Zoë and cat Xerxes, on a lake at the top of a mountain where NJ meets NY, oh so close to Pennsylvania - a true ＂tristate＂ resident.
