A Handful of Numbers
Written by Christinia Cheung & Han Tran
Illustrated by Tong Wu
This is a great little board book. The counting and numbers are all related to things about the Earth and our universe. Example: 2 poles (north and south); 5 geologic layers; etc. The illustrations are beautiful!
On the left page is the number written in large type. Then, there is a description of what the illustration shows, and in the bottom left corner of that page is the corresponding number rod. On the opposite page is a beautiful illustration. Example: 3; three oceans; description of the oceans and what they do; the third number rod.
It is especially nice in the way that it is connecting counting and numbers with our geography studies. Children at the primary level and older toddlers will enjoy this book.
