This witty, stylish counting book will catch the attention of adults as well as the imagination of the very young. A rhythmic, rhyming text and eye-catching illustrations present us with one fox in socks, then two gorillas looking in mirrors, followed by three jolly llamas in pyjamas, right up to the twenty birds who have the last words. Along the way we also meet five goats wearing coats, the goats labelled and clearly identifiable under their coats (Nubian, mountain, angora…). Other favourite spreads include the one featuring sixteen chickens reading (and clearly enjoying) Dickens! A wonderfully original counting book that is as handsome as it is effective.
Starting with one fox wearing a pair of socks, join in as we count all the way up to 20.
This rhyming, numbers book takes young readers through numbers from 1 to 20, as they meet a cast of funny and delightful animals along the way.
Dogs with pet frogs and snakes who love to eat cakes are beautifully illustrated in Katie Viggers’ trademark style. 1 to 20 Animals Aplenty is perfect for use at home and in the classroom, and will engage children as they learn how to count.
