This book is wonderful! The pictures are very colorful and peaceful to look at. Just as important, the flow and rhythm of the book is amazingly catching. I have had the entire book memorized for years, and that is without even trying.

I loved the book at 5, and I still love it at 27. I had this book as a kid, and I give it to all my friends who have children.

If you know someone who is learning to count, or someone who is a child at heart, this is the perfect book for them!

My dad read this book to my sister and I when we were small. We loved it more than any other book out there! The rhymes and illustrations were superior. We all still remember each and every number and group of animals associated with the number. My sister has given this book as a baby gift for years, and now that she is having a baby of her own, she is planning on having the nursery designed with the adorable animals! It is a must read and really helps little kids enjoy both math and reading throughout life!!!

A bouncing rhyme book. The darling illustrations of Garth Williams enhance this simple counting book, which uses items on a farm to teach counting from 1 to 10. Old fashioned and darling!

This is a great little book of poetry that shows children the experience and reactions of different events. I thought the author did a good job showing the multicultural in the book. The poems were short and easy to read. This would give a child of younger age the freedom to read it without much difficulty. The author allowed the character to had situation where they could explore their own world around them. The poems also showed how special the family was to these characters and the special talent they processed. The illustration were very bright and cheerful. They allowed you to "smile" and feel good about reading the poems. I really enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone.

This book sings! It is one of the best collections of poems I've come across for my seven year old. When I read this to her at night she doesn't want it to end (this is one of the first times I've been successful at reading poetry to her). I would recommend this book for all ages but the subject nature-based matter is particularly appropriate for young children. Not trite but accessible - "The sun's going down with a great hurrah, a gold ball sinking, staining the sky."

Pickle for a Nickle is a really cute book. The speach therapist that my daughter went to used this book to help my daughter pronounce sounds she was having difficulty with. This book shows the true nature of a little boy and how curious he can be. It also shows how solutions can be worked out to our problems. My daughter and her sibbling really enjoy reading this book over and over again.

As a mother in her thirties, I can't wait to get a hold of a copy of this little story. I was read to often as a child and this was my all time favorite request. As soon as I learned to read, I read it over and over, the poor book was literally read to pieces. I hope it returns to print for a new generation of readers.

"I'll Meet You At The Cucumbers" was about mice and they had a cool adventure to the city. It had a very good ending.

I liked I'll Meet you at the Cucumbers because it was a good book and I liked it because it has animals in it. The mice find apples and eat the apples and it was Amanda's birthday. If you like adventure books, this is a good book for you.
