Rating:  Summary: Beautiful Artwork Review: This book has some of the most beautiful artwork you will ever see in a children's book. My 17 month old took a few tries to warm up to the story, and it still isn't a favorite of hers. A lot of times we will just sit and look at the pretty pictures.
Rating:  Summary: Truly wonderful Review: This is a beautifully illustrated board book. My 10-month-old son picks it out of his book bag again and again. He loves to turn the pages and runs his fingers over many of the pictures as if trying to pluck the items off the page. My personal favorite is number 8 (butterflies hiding in a gorgeous bouquet of flowers), but my son seems to prefer the four rubber bugs.Another feature that I like about it is that the numbers go up to twelve. So many counting books end at ten; this is a welcome change. The only negative thing I can come up with is that it is sometimes a bit challenging to find the identified number of things listed in the illustration, but I think that will be part of the fun for my son as he gets a bit older.
Rating:  Summary: A Fun Way to Learn Counting Review: What's really interesting about this book is the art work. Your child would be mesmerized with the vibrant colors, beautiful and detailed artwork. These elements work to get your child interested in the book. What's more, there's a simple story that goes with it which makes the book fun to read. Eventually, your children will learn to count after reading the book over and over and over again. (You know kids, once they like a book, they'll ask you to read it for umpteen times!). Thus, our intention of wanting them to learn or wanting to introduce them to numbers is finally achieved. It is done subconsciusly, which is good, coz we don't want them to feel stress out. The interest just comes along on its own without us forcing it through.
