What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None.
Ideal Reader
A toddler, aged 18 months to 3 years, who is just beginning to recite numbers or point at objects while counting. It is particularly effective for visually-motivated children who respond well to bright colors and clear, uncluttered images, or for a reluctant learner who can be enticed by the high-interest subject of candy.
Parent Prep
No preparation is needed to read the book. A parent might want to be prepared for the child to ask for candy after seeing all the delicious-looking pictures, but the book itself is self-explanatory. A parent has noticed their child is starting to say number words, maybe out of order, or is pointing to things and trying to count. They are looking for a first counting book that is simple, durable, and will hold their young child's very short attention span.
