How do you know what size thumb pick you need?
In general if you have average size hands, men would use large, women would use medium and children would use small depending on their body size and age. Most players can use the same size finger pick on all fingers. If you play finger style guitar and use three fingers, your ring finger might need a smaller size pick.

Is a thumb pick better?
The thumb pick easily allows you play chords (clawhammer style), which will provide you with a clean, controlled sound that is especially clear on octaves. You can use your fingers to pick difficult strings while you're playing a solo, instead of having to learn a unique picking technique.
