New Counting Book,
By
This review is from: How Many Sharks in the Bath? (Hardcover)
Not the usual type of counting book, this title combines traditional counting activities with a simple "I Spy" flair on each double page spread. Each spread features a different scene, from kitchen to playground to bedroom, in which different numbers of animals frolic in fun. A child in each picture encourages the reader to "count the animals and put your finger on the number" found in a list on the right side of the page. Four different types of animals in various numbers appear in each spread, prompting the reader in a column on the left. Once prereaders are comfortable with the basic mechanics of counting, the book is simple enough to be read alone as a seek and count activity. Enforcing number concepts playfully, this counting book will have more reading mileage as children become comfortable with counting and number recognition. Zero, often neglected in counting books, is also introduced. There might be two sharks in the bathtub, but no octopuses on the towel rail!
This book is wonderful for teaching number concept to toddlers and preschoolers, but not recommended for large storytime groups with its interactive format. Highly recommended. |
