It's easy to learn counting with this classic Little Golden Book! The rhythmic text, paired with heartwarming animal illustrations by Garth Williams, have made counting from one to ten a joy for nearly 60 years. A must for every toddler and preschooler's library. Little Golden Books have been loved by children for over 75 years. When they were first published in 1942, high-quality books for children hadn’t been available at a price most people could afford. Little Golden Books changed that! Priced at just 25 cents and sold where people shopped every day, they caused an instant sensation and were soon purchased by the hundreds of thousands. Created by such talented writers as Margaret Wise Brown (author of Goodnight Moon) and Richard Scarry, Little Golden Books have helped millions of children develop a lifelong love of reading. Today, Little Golden Books feature beloved classics such as The Poky Little Puppy and Scuffy the Tugboat, hot licenses, and new original stories—the classics of tomorrow, ready to be discovered between their sturdy cardboard covers and gold-foil spines.

I think this book was originally recommended to me through the Animal Play curriculum. It is another one we borrowed through our local library and the READS program with Overdrive through my Kindle Fire. Love that! This one was a different formatting from the others where it was a vertical image rather than the horizontal and it did not look quite as good that way, but it was still full readable on the Kindle Fire.
This book is full of beautiful images and some words that kids might not get in the normal books we'd find today. I love the classic nature and plan to try to get the book in person.
