Ten in a Hurry

Ten little fish, swimming in a line… but wait―who's that creeping up behind?

Get ready for giggles, gasps, and counting fun in this bright, bold board book that toddlers beg to read again (and again).

From Lo Cole, author and illustrator of Ten on a Twig, comes a mischievous, interactive adventure where early learning meets surprise and silliness. As each colorful fish gets gobbled up, little readers can count down, call out colors, and keep guessing what comes next. But don't worry―one tiny fish has a BIG idea.

With bouncy rhyme, clever die-cuts, and vibrant artwork that jumps off the page, Ten in a Hurry is more than a book―it's a color-packed splash-fest that keeps little hands turning pages.

Whether for the classroom, nursery, or cozy lap reading, Ten in a Hurry blends early childhood education with storytelling magic. It's a standout gift for birthdays, holidays, and new readers discovering the joy of books.

Perfect for ages 0–5 | Early learning favorite | Ideal for fans of Eric Carle
