tiny hands / to grab

Instead of "avec ses mains minuscules" for "with his tiny hands", could you also say "avec ses toutes petites mains" ?

And

instead of the verb "attraper" could i have used "se saisir de" and said "il s'est saisi de mon pouce" ?

Il or lui as subject?

This question was asked in a TV show I watched today: “…mais est-ce que lui voudra te voir?” My question is why is lui used instead of il?

l'usage de venir de devant les paysSalut KWIZIC!J'espere que vous allez bien.Mon inquietude est au niveau de venir du+pays masculins. Du (de + le) devant un pays masculin n'exprime pas la nationalite mais le deplacement de ce pays a un autre.Le verbe est venir de et la question est De ou viens-tu? La voyelle ''e'' s'elide en donnant lieu a l'appostrophe.Je viens de Benin pour signifier que je suis beninois et je viens du Benin pour faire allusion au deplacement(en route du Benin pour un autre lieu).Veuillez me contacter sur + 233242639524.
