    About this ebook

    This lively ebook shows that the world around us is filled with things to count. Three are the dim sum carts filled with yummy treats, eight are the candles on a birthday cake, and ten are the bamboo stalks growing in a garden. Many of the featured objects are Asian in origin, but all are universal in appeal. With brilliantly colored illustrations, an ear-pleasing text and an informative glossary, this truly multicultural book will make counting a fun part of every child's day!

      It's about Chinese New Year. I liked the pictures and I think you will too. I also want you to know that my name is Etta. Bye
    • 3/5
      diverse picture book (Chinese festivities--New Year, Dragon Boats, Eight Immortals, etc./Counting; preschoolers 3 and up)
      * Features diverse characters: lots of Asian-looking characters, as you'd expect, but quite a few darker-skinned kids (as well as light-skinned Caucasians) are included in the festivities. A lot of the things pictured may take some explaining, even among kids of Asian descent, so I feel that it's more a book for showcasing Chinese culture than it is about counting, though there half of the pictures will be universally recognized (9 kids playing in the sprinklers, 8 eating birthday cake, 6 on a merry-go-round.
      * Suitable for preschool storytime. Too much for toddlers, but preschool-Kindergarten, sure. This might be a good one for when you're looking for Lunar New Year books. It could also work for the "counting" theme, since the objects are colorful and mostly large enough to be countable by the crowd.
