description: A Caldecott Honor Book and ALA Notable Book A bedtime book and a counting book! A delightful bedtime book. New York Times Acclaimed author Molly Bang shares the going-to-bed countdown in a loving family. Ten small toes all washed and warm begins the story and then young readers journey toward tuck-in time counting down along with the storys African-American father and daughter. In the satisfying conclusion one little sleepyhead settles in for the night. An award-winning classic Ten Nine Eight has been comforting and delighting children and their parents for more than thirty years. This beguiling picture book with a palette of eye-filling colors appears to arise naturally from the love binding a father and his little big girl who turn bedtime into playtime with a rhyming game.
