What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
None. The book is a secular, educational tool focused entirely on the mathematical concept of counting.
Ideal Reader
The ideal reader is a 2- to 4-year-old who is in the pre-mathematical stage of development. This child has started pointing to objects and reciting number sounds (even if out of order) or is beginning to ask "how many?" It is for the child who thrives on clear, structured learning and finds satisfaction in mastering a new skill. It is a perfect first numbers book.
Parent Prep
No preparation is necessary. This book can be read cold. A parent can enhance the learning by encouraging the child to trace the numerals with their finger or by finding the same number of objects in the room to connect the concept to the child's environment. A parent observes their child lining up toys and attempting to count them, or counting steps as they walk. The parent is looking for a simple, non-overwhelming book to support this emerging developmental milestone and wants a tool to practice with, rather than a story that happens to include numbers.
