Ten, Nine, Eight

Author	Molly Bang
ISBN	0688149014

This is a simple and sweet beginning number book counting down from 10 to 1 and then going to bed. I am not crazy about the artwork, but the painting of the 10 toes was beautiful. I’m not sure what it was, but it didn’t work for me personally. I think this is great for very young children, but it was way to...
