We originally checked this one out of the library - and instantly knew that we had to purchase it. The book consists of a top half and bottom half for which the pages can be turned separately. Numbers from 1 to 10 accompanied by the appropriate number of black squares need to be paired with the picture with the same number of fruit on the bottom page. The number word (in bold) and name of the fruit are on the left hand side of the bottom pages. In addition, the fruit are of course, different colors with each of the primary and secondary colors represented at least once. What a wonderful way to expose children to multiple references for numbers!
I love the split page design. It adds a level of interaction to a number book, that goes beyond just seeing number and image on a page - the child can actually go about the book, count and find the right combination. Sturdy, too. Very happy with this and will purchase the other books from the series as well.
This book makes learning numbers fun. The pictures are very colorful. Finding the items to match the number makes it a little more challening and fun. My granddaughter loves it!
This is a little advanced for my 1.5 year old, as the top and bottom of the pages turn independently and you are to match the number with the picture. But it is sturdy and the colors are bright and I know he will enjoy it when he is older.
Eric Carle's books are great, so I thought a board book by Eric Carle would be a great gift! The little girl I gave this to loved it!
This book is small for little fingers to hold and is made very sturdy. It should last a long time.
Love these books by Eric Carle. I bought these books for my grandson and he loves them.
We used this as part of a gift to the library! The book is super cute!
