Island Counting 1 2 3
PreSchool-K-This book delivers just what the title promises: a counting book about the people, animals, and objects found on a Caribbean island. Lessac introduces each number from 1 to 10 in a rhyming couplet. For example, "Five market ladies wearing shady hats. Six cricket players waiting with their bats." She ends with children celebrating carnival. The illustrations are done in vibrant island colors that will catch readers' interest. The pictures are large enough for group sharing and the items are easy to count. This is a great concept book and a creative way of introducing youngsters to another culture.-Sheilah Kosco, Rapides Parish Library, Alexandria, LACopyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
