In this example sentence, "Nous sommes rentrés, les vêtements tout sales et les cheveux en bataille.", why you use tout, instead of tous? Should "tous" be agree with "les vetments" and "sales" in number?
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" ?

You are supposed to walk ( as opposed to not ride your bike/roller skate/ etc) could take "aller à pied"...it seems to me.
I thought subject pronouns ("vous" in this case) would make it "ce que"?

I thought that using 'quoi' was impolite, verging on downright rude. Is this no longer, or never was, the case?
Why is il habite without an apostrophe if it begins with h
