I love this book and the Charlie Harper ABC's book too.
This book is like a small collection of works of art rather than a child's book. I think it is well worth the price. It's beautifully printed. Charlie's illustrations are simple, clever, intelligent and beautiful. This book is far superior to many other children' books out there.
I'm only giving it 4 stars, unfortunately, because many of the illustrations are repeated from the Charlie Harper ABC book. Charley Harper ABCs (Chunky Version) FOUR out of ten pages are repeats. If you want both books, be prepared for that. I wish I had known. I would not have bought this book. Plus the numbers book only goes up to 10, while the ABC book has over 26 pages. So you get a lot more in the ABC book. Even the end page is the same: a photo of Chalie in the woods studying the birds. They put some of his bird illustrations in the photo, so it's a neat collage, and my toddler loves to find the illustrated birds (just two of them) in the photo. I'd had loved it if they did this again using another photo or different bird illustrations.
I'd still recommend this book. Charlie Harper was an amazing artist, and I'm so glad someone decided to share his work with our children!

I bought this book after being really pleased with the ABC's book. I love the art style and my almost-1 year old finds the pictures fascinating.

I'm so thrilled that Charley Harper's work is out there again, then when I saw that it went to children's books, I had to get it! It's a different and fantastic book for children. Also get the ABC'S book and memory game!... :)-

Eyecatching art. So excellent and simple drawings to help view the world and paint it. I like all Charlie Harpers' works.

Charlie Harper RULES!
Love this book. The artwork is stunning, as always, and the construction of the book is very nice. It will be harder for my son to destroy. Never has counting looked so good.
