A Quiet Day in the Jungle by Andrew Weale
Part of the My First Picture Book series: perfect for every toddler to help encourage language skills, understanding, enjoyment and sharing. These books are a bridge between board books and picture books; printed on toddler-tough card with rounded corners. Explore a sleepy jungle setting, counting up the increasing number of animals until ten unruly puffer fish unleash chaos, leading to a rapid count down as the animals scatter. Little readers will love seeing how Cheeky Monkey's actions cause havoc -- can you spot him on every page? The perfect way to discover counting.
"Vibrant..an appealing and entertaining way to help children to learn their numbers." * Booktrust *
"Superbly illustrated, encouraging one-to-one correspondence as children learn to count, this book makes a valuable resource to support most areas of the curriculum, but particularly lends itself to literacy, maths and art." * Early Years Educator *
