You may remember singing "Over in the meadow in the sand in the sun lived an old mother fox and her little fox one, &.. ." This book takes place in the desert. The illustrations are very animated and there is a hidden numeral on each page corresponding to the number of animals. Some of them are easier to find than others. There is a glossary at the end of the text for the flora and fauna of the desert. Librarian review

This numbers book reinforces counting from 1-12. It starts out with the architect's plan for the building, goes on to digging out the foundation, and on to the structure of the building above ground. You not only see the number on each page in the small box, but each page also shows the number word and the number of dots, to reinforce the concept. Librarian review

This is a colorful counting book with lots of young barnyard animals that ends at the number six, not ten, so it's ideal for the youngest children. The child and animals in the story have worn themselves out playing in the mud with the piglets, cleaning up in the pond with the ducks and wandering around the farm. Librarian review
