A parent would reach for this book when their toddler is beginning to show a natural interest in counting objects or during a quiet moment before a nap when a familiar friend is needed. This board book follows the iconic character Corduroy the bear as he explores a farm, identifying groups of animals and objects from one to ten. It is a gentle introduction to numeracy that feels like a playdate rather than a lesson. The emotional themes of curiosity and joy are woven into the simple counting exercise, making it an ideal choice for children aged one to three. Parents will appreciate how it builds foundational math skills while maintaining the soft, comforting aesthetic associated with Don Freeman's classic character. It is perfect for reinforcing vocabulary and helping little ones connect numbers to the physical world around them.
