Arlene Alda's 1 2 3: What Do You See?
As in her previousArlene Alda's ABC, this keen-eyed photographer has managed to put a new and refreshing twist on the hoariest of children's-book content... number identification! This intriguing picture book takes you from 1 to 10 and back again, and each number is illustrated by often whimsical color photographs.  Alda's sharp eye sees the number 2, for example, in an  old-fashioned coat hanger; number 3 in the neck of a swan reflected in water; and number 8 in  the two halves of a sliced and liberally cream-cheesed bagel.  Some of the shapes are strikingly apt, while others need a bit of "reading," but all are designed to help young readers see the world--and the world of numbers--a bit differently.
