Turn each graduated page of this sturdy board book to find a big, bold, die-cut number from one to ten - and a madcap chase that ends with a silly surprise.
Start the count! Little listeners will clamor to call out the numbers as one little chick is followed by a rooster, then a cat, a dog, a ram, and a rowdy crew of animals of increasing size. But flip the final page, and a clever mouse with a bullhorn manages to scare them all back where they came from!
