Take your seats for the Animal ABC show where a host of hilarious animal characters make learning letters fun! Meet fire-fighting fleas, telephoning toads, parading piranhas and vacuuming vultures — one for every letter of the alphabet! This is the ultimate alphabet picture book, exuberantly illustrated in bright, bold colour by award-winning illustrator David Wojtowycz. -- Scholastic, Inc.

In this simple counting book, the author gets children laughing and interested with the silly illustrations with animals to match each number from 1 to 10. Some examples are 7 singing sheep, 8 energetic eagle, 9 polite pigs, and 10 tigers in tutus. This is a fun book for children to learn numbers and one to one correspondence. This is definitely a book that teachers should have on their shelves for pre-k, kindergarten, and first grade.

I absolutely loved this counting book and the illustrations in this book. This would be great for preschoolers and young children I really love how the author used the end page to show all of the animals and numbers at the end to tie the book together.
