Slip, slide, leap, and dive with a family of seven lively ducklings as they get ready to fly for the very first time. Keith Baker's playful, rhyming text and bold collage illustrations capture the excitement of a day's adventures--and gently introduce counting.
Review
"This deceptively straightforward book introduces youngsters to addition
in such an unobtrusive, organic and merry way that they may not even notice
how much they're learning. "--Publishers Weekly
"Wonderfully handled . . . harmoniously reinforcing the beauty of
numbers themselves."--Chicago Tribune
"A delightful book offering loads of fun with the number seven. . . . This charmer
should have little ones figuring out the basic concept of addition in no time."--Booklist
Synopsis
Seven ducklings show how easy--and fun--addition can be!
