"Christmas Numbers" by Sonja Lamut. Sub-titled, "Turn And Learn" Grosset and Dunlap, 2000.

Each page has a number wheel that turns. If you line up the correct number in the slot, something special appears. For example on the very first page, devoted to the number one, if you turn the wheel so that "1" appears, a bight golden angel is placed on top of the Christmas tree. The numbers run from 1 to 10. On the page for the number eight, as you turn the wheel to "8", cute brown reindeer come into view.
All eight reindeer. Pulling Santa's sleigh! Then, I would ask my grandchildren to name the reindeer: "Dasher and Dancer" and so on.

So, this book is a multi-faceted clever learning opportunity, as the children see both the written number and the letters which name the number. If you line up the wheel correctly on a page, the wheel is not aligned correctly on the back page. Thus, page 1 shows you the angel on the top of the tree, but its flip side, page two, is not aligned to place the orange carrot noses on the two (2) snowmen. Clever book!
