  • One to Ten... and Back Again

    Betty Ann Schwartz, Susie Shakir

    Board book (Smart Ink, distributed by Ideals Publications, Sept. 1, 2009)
    The numbers are the same...counting them is a whole new experience! This is as easy as 1...2...3! or... 3...2...1! Grasp the convenient built-in handles and open the covers. A ribbon appears, almost by magic, with a bright little bee printed on it. With a turn of the page, a second ribbon with two pretty little butterflies appears. And so, on to 10. Think you are finished? Indeed not! Turn the book upside down and count back to one. A deceptively simple silk ribbon action, dazzling printing, clear design, and a mesmerizing page-turning sequence adds up to -- well, far more than ten!
