Description
In this unusual counting book, playful poems tell the stories of one elk, two birds, three fish--from one through ten and then many--as they go about their day. For an added bonus, numerals, Roman numerals, and words related to the numbers are included in the page design. Jason Stemple's intimate photographs give us a unique look at some common creatures that enjoy the company of others.
