What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
There are no sensitive topics in this book. It is a simple, secular counting book.
Ideal Reader
The ideal reader is a child aged 12 to 36 months who is beginning to show interest in pointing, naming, and counting. It's also excellent for babies (6-12 months) as a visually stimulating object for lap-reading, focusing on colors and the rhythm of a caregiver's voice.
Parent Prep
No preparation is needed. The book is self-explanatory and can be read cold. Parents can enhance the experience by using enthusiastic voices, making animal sounds, and physically pointing to each object as they count aloud with their child. A parent has noticed their toddler pointing at groups of objects and attempting to count, or they are simply looking for a durable, aesthetically pleasing, and educationally sound first counting book to add to their home library.
