About This Book
Reach for this book when you want to transform a routine learning moment into a snuggly, rhythmic celebration of the natural world. It is the perfect choice for a quiet afternoon or a bedtime wind-down when your child is showing an early interest in numbers but still craves the comfort of a repetitive, melodic story. This book captures the gentle bond between animal parents and their offspring through a classic nursery rhyme. As you read about turtles, bees, and frogs, your child will naturally absorb basic counting skills while feeling a sense of security in the 'family' units depicted. It is an ideal bridge for toddlers and preschoolers who are moving from simple picture identification to more complex observation of nature and sequences. The vibrant illustrations and predictable rhythm foster a sense of joy and wonder, making the 'work' of learning to count feel like a playful song shared between you and your child.
What Parents Should Know

Ideal Reader
A preschooler who loves animals and is just beginning to recognize groups of objects. It is also excellent for a child who may find traditional learning frustrating but responds well to music, rhythm, and rhyme.
