Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Newly hatched chicks star in an ebullient version of One, Two, Buckle My Shoe. In a starred review, PW said that Bakers bold outlines, plump figures and vibrant acrylics add up to an especially appealing counting primer. Ages 2-6.

From School Library Journal
PreSchool-A large, brilliantly colored rendition of the counting rhyme "one, two, buckle my shoe." Baker uses an imaginative array of acrylic colors for his hens-greens, purples, and pinks to contrast with the warm, yellow straw background. There are lots of things to count, such as sticks, eggs, chicks, and hens. A fine choice for toddler story hours.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Big Fat Hen (Paperback)
I bought this book sight unseen and absolutely love it. I'm a kinder teacher always on the prowl for books with folk stories and nursery rhymes. Big Fat hen is... 1,2 Buckle My Shoe. The illustrations are fabulous and the kids, love the rhyming. It's a popular pick in my classroom!

Our four month old grandson is fascinated with this book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Big Fat Hen (Board book)
Our grandson loves this book and learned to turn the pages at four months. The coloring and graphics appeal to him. Another grandmother gave it to us and she was right on target. It is the only book we've found that holds his interest and that he doesn't chew instead of read.

This is a great first book for a child, lots of counting and things to see in the pictures if you are really paying attention. Your toddler/preschooler will love it!
