This humorous picture book brings back the beloved duo, Musk Ox and Zebra, as they embark on a seemingly simple task: counting from one to ten. However, Musk Ox's imaginative and often absurd interpretations of each number consistently derail Zebra's attempts to keep them on track. Parents will appreciate the witty text and expressive illustrations that capture the dynamic between the patient, yet exasperated, Zebra and the free-spirited Musk Ox. It's a fantastic read-aloud for children aged 4-8, offering both laughs and a gentle introduction to numbers, while also subtly exploring themes of patience, friendship, and embracing different ways of thinking.
Fans of A IS FOR MUSK OX will be happy to know that Musk Ox and Zebra are back...and trying to make it through a counting book. As usual, Musk Ox has his own ideas and Zebra does not fail to show his frustration trying to get Musk Ox back on track. Will they make it from 1-10, or will their efforts end in annoyance? Cabatingan and Myers pair up again in this second in the Musk Ox series. Cabatingan's witty, sharp text mixes perfectly with Myer's grinning anti-hero and hapless zebra.
