In this unusual and entertaining counting book, ten pig siblings embark on new adventures. Accompanying each adventure is an etching containing the numbers 0 to 9, as well as the ten piglets hidden within.
Ten pigs go on an adventurous quest. The reader is asked to find all ten of them, and the numerals from zero to nine, in each picture.
Arthur Geisert’s unique and exquisite etchings have been widely praised and exhibited at the Chicago Institute of Art, among other museums. His work is regularly selected for the Society of Illustrators’, annual Original Art exhibition, and his illustrations are now being collected by the Dubuque Museum of Art. He lives in a converted bank in Bernard, Iowa.
"In this dreamlike world where piglets use their initiative and steam drills appear out of nowhere, readers, too, have a quest: hidden in each delicately etched spread are 10 industrious pigs and elusive numbers, craftily disguised," said PW. Ages 4-8. (May) Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information.
