And I was not disappointed. Now, many counting books have numbers of items in bright colors, but here we have a more interesting story line.
Lots of different animals and items are arranged in groups of 1 to 20, and then by 10s up to 100.
I think this is a valuable book for children just learning about numbers and quantities. For example, does your child need to see what the number 5 or 50 (5 sets of 10) means? This book shows it visually, and very well, at that.
I highly recommend this large size happy and fun book as an aid to really help kids learn number and quantity concepts!
