[Jean · Rating 5 out of 5]

We enjoyed this beautiful book. I loved that not only was it a simple rhyming counting book but it included facts about the things being counted. My boys were especially curious about the animals in our state. The pictures were very engaging, my 4 and 6 year old enjoyed!
