description: Beginning readers can count to tenand addwhile they learn to read with P.J. Funnybunn y author Marilyn Sadler's latest funniest Bright and Early Book! Gwen the hen has laid her eggs but just how many is anyone's guess. For now she's quite content to sit and wait for them to hatch. Red Rooster however is too excited to wait. As soon as one egg hatches he struts over to Worm World and buys ONE worm for his ONE new baby chick. Alas Red returns to find that not ONE new baby chick but TWO baby chicks have now hatched requiring a return trip to Worm World. The hijinks continue back and forth until ten eggs have hatched Red Rooster is ready to plotz and young readers have learned a thing or two about counting to ten; simple addition; buying and selling; and chickens and eggs! With stylized illustrations by Michael Fleming reminiscent of classic Beginner Books this is a perfect choice for parents looking to teach reading and math to their own little chicks!
