Summary

WHEN YOU LOOK THROUGH THIS BOOK YOU'LL LEARN TO COUNT AN AMOUNT AND TO RHYME ANYTIME... Join popular children's author Judi Barrett for a rollicking romp through numbers one to ten. Each number is accompanied by a nonsensical verse built on words that rhyme with the number itself, and serves as a perfect springboard for Daniel Moreton's detailed and zany artwork. Young readers won't rest until they find each number and rhyme in brightly colored illustrations that bring together the most unlikely collection of creatures and things. Here's a book that steretches a child's imagination while bringing numbers, counting, and the concept of rhyming together in a playful, informative way.
