Go on a picnic with lots of ants and learn to count by tens.

Summer is the perfect time for a picnic -- and everyone knows that ants love a good picnic! Watermelon and corn on the cob -- yum! But when the sun starts to set, the ants must find their way home after a long afternoon in the park.

This tale of ants parading toward a picnic is “one of those rare gems capable of entertaining while it instructs” (Middlesex News). One hundred hungry ants march off single file to sample a picnic, but when the going gets too slow, they divide into two rows of fifty, then four rows of twenty-five . . . until they take so long that the picnic is gone! “The unexpected pairing of sophisticated art and light-hearted text lends this book particular distinction.” —Publishers Weekly “The illustrations . . . use a pleasing palette and energetic lines to depict ants with highly individual characters.” —Horn Book

In this book, 100 hungry ants discover a picnic and get into all of the food.

Lifes a Picnic, Then Come the Ants, is a book that describes many touching and often humorous stories from different animals that the author has dealt with. Not only will you laugh at the antics of the animal characters or sigh at the trouble they get into, but each chapter brings out an important lesson that God teaches us from looking at His marvelous creation. Young and old alike will laugh at the antics of a young kitten as he accidently jumps into a bathtub full of water, or cheer a baby bird on as he takes his first flight. The lessons learned from each story will resonate with many of us, no matter the age, as we struggle to learn the teachings of Christ and grow closer to Him each day.
