I worked with it for a lesson with two five year old boys, and they seemed to love it. They liked that the numbers often had eyes and mouths and looked like real book characters; and they all loved the fire truck and the rollercoaster rails on number eight. I would happily have this book in the school library or on the shelf in the classroom.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Which number is two?\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e(pause)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"I don't know... \"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis rendering of a conversation between a parent and child may be heard in homes where a child is learning his\/her numbers. The number names are fairly easily memorized. However, when asked to connect the names to the correct numerical figure, a child may be found lost. So many books, flashcards, and activity books have been published, bombarding little learners with numbers zero to ten. Yet how many circulated works truly serve to anchor the connection between the number name and its pictorial symbol? It is true that with the passage of time, children do identify the numbers. Generations of children have mastered this numerical language without the aid of this little book. But if they did have this book, learning the numbers would have been far more enjoyable. Children (and adults) are fond of rhymes, the mind quickly remembering and willingly memorizing. The simple pictorial rhyme will indeed come to an aid of a child who is desperately searching for the number 2.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Which number is two?
