Description
Book SynopsisSuitable for ages 4-8, this title enables children to play with numbers and develop a better understanding of numeric values through a comic approach. It's rhymes provide the cadence of various dance styles, and the spare accompanying art lends energy to the numerals' challenge to accept each other as they are.
