PreS-K–This unique concept book combines both plot and counting! Readers follow a variety of animals as they experience different emotions and later find resolutions to their issues. “Four crocs feel frustrated. They’ve just run out of chalk./ Four crocs feel cheerful. They’re playing with a ball.” With a soft color palette and sparse text, this title is a purchase for most libraries.
VERDICT If you’re having trouble tempting little ones and their caregivers to the counting book shelves, this one will entice.
