The Very Berry Counting Book (1) (Jerry Pallotta's Counting Books)

"Children can learn to count from one to 10 in a berry appetizing way. This lovely counting book, reminiscent of old-fashioned botanical illustrations, introduces children to a variety of berries." -Kirkus Reviews

Best-selling author Jerry Pallotta’s latest counting book is for the youngest readers to devour. Covering familiar North American berries like blueberries and strawberries, as well as lesser-known ones such as mul-berries and salmonberries, this fruity board book combines evocative adjectives with berry names, numbers, and colors in a sweet and simple way. Joy Newton’s botanical illustrations bring a vintage farm-stand feel to each page.  

Berries are a healthy finger food toddlers are familiar with. Learning their names and the numbers from one to ten is sure to delight.
