I love this new picture book written by my friend Sherry Ellis, author of That Mama is a Grouch and That Baby Woke Me Up Again! It's a simple and charming story that teaches little ones a lot of basic skills. Not only does it help kids understand counting, it also teaches them about simple subtraction, colors, and classifying. With its rhyming patterns and predictable story structure, Ten Zany Birds is a fun read-aloud for pre-readers and a great read-along for beginning readers. Cute and colorful watercolors by Charu Jain enhance the fun story. Get the book here.
