While being exposed to a great artist, young readers will also be counting in four different languages before they know it. Numbers one through ten are clearly translated into English, Spanish, French, and German, while Haring's bright, kid-friendly illustrations make counting an entertaining romp .

Pop & Colorful. Delight for grownups, too!,
This review is from: Ten (Board book)
Pop and cute picture book. Each page contains Keith's colorful dancing men from 1 to 10 with English, Spanish, French and German words like "One, Uno, Un, Eins." It's also delight for grownups!

A good beginning,
By A Customer
This review is from: Ten (Board book)
I bought this book for my newborn granddaughter. The bold pictures and bright colors make it an excellent choice for immediate introduction to reading. It is a delight to the eye of the adult who is reading and easy for the little one to focus on. As the child grows, she is able to look at the numbers for herself. If you buy BIG, you gotta' have TEN to go with it.

8 Month Old's Favorite Book,
This review is from: Ten (Board book)
Baby and I have read a lot of the classics (Goodnight Moon, Eric Carle, Helen Oxenbury, Karin Katz, ...) and this is by far baby's favorite book. He grunts and drools extensively whenever we read it (baby speak for "man oh man!"). It also holds his attention for a lot longer than all other books-- even the baby face books. Another plus is that this book is not junk food literature; baby is exposed to the work of a well respected artist and is introduced to the concept of counting (in English, Spanish, French, and German). Can probably be used in Montessori curriculum.
