When 1 duck spies 2 cars pulling up by the pond and out dash 3 dogs, 4 boys, 5 girls, picnic pandemonium is about to begin. "An imaginative wordless story book....A counting book extraordinaire."--School Library Journal.

A board book version of this bestselling picture book all about counting from one to ten. This wonderful and unique look at counting and friendship is from the viewpoint of Sue and Nick, who like very different things but are still best friends. They introduce us to their favourite things from one boy called Nick and one girl called Sue to ten cakes for tea, and then count all the way back down to one yellow moon shining in the night sky. The artwork is stunning with each artist contributing alternate pages in their own inimitable style. The deceptively simple text is perfect for children learning to read.

So begins an enchanting counting journey from one buzzy bee to ten sparkling stars as little children lift the flaps and count what they find underneath. Thanks to the ingenious design of the book, when they have reached ten, they can count back down, closing each flap as they go. Stylish illustrations, novelty features, simple rhyming text and puzzle elements combine to make this a fun, interactive counting book. Helps children recognize number shapes, build vocabulary and learn to count reliably up to 10 and back. Friendly animal characters provide prompts as to what is under each flap.

Author Kim Norman (Crocodaddy) and illustrator Liza Woodruff have whipped up a rollicking, jolly, snow-filled adventure! In the land of the midnight sun, all the animals are having fun speeding down the hill on Caribous sled. But as they go faster and faster, Seal, Hare, Walrus, and the others all fall off…until just Caribous left, only and lonely. Now, a reindeer likes flying-but never alone, so…one through ten, all leap on again! An ideal picture book for reading-and singing along with-over and over.

Ages 2 to 4 years. The numbers are the same ... counting them is a whole new experience! Grasp the convenient built-in handles and open the covers. A ribbon appears, almost by magic, with a bright little bee printed on it. With a turn of the page, a second ribbon with two pretty little butterflies appears. And so, on to 10. Think you are finished? Indeed not! Turn the book upside down and count back to one. A deceptively simple silk ribbon action, dazzling printing, clear design, and a mesmerising page-turning sequence adds up to -- well, far more than ten!

Moving to America turns H&à's life inside out. For all the 10 years of her life, H&à has only known Saigon: the thrills of its markets, the joy of its traditions, the warmth of her friends close by, and the beauty of her very own papaya tree. But now the Vietnam War has reached her home. H&à and her family are forced to flee as Saigon falls, and they board a ship headed toward hope. In America, H&à discovers the foreign world of Alabama: the coldness of its strangers, the dullness of its food, the strange shape of its landscape, and the strength of her very own family. This is the moving story of one girl's year of change, dreams, grief, and healing as she journeys from one country to another, one life to the next.
