This sturdy little book in the MY TURN TO LEARN series is all about the Numbers from 1 to 10.

This book features an adorable chubby brown bear --he's "ONE bear"-- who appears on subsequent pages with TWO owls, THREE birds, etc.

What I really love about this book, besides the cute bear, is that it's super sturdy. The pages are not flexible in the least; but very thick and glossy. I would think they'd hold up very well.

What I'm a bit disappointed about is that numbers 6 thru 10 all appear on the same two pages. I understand that the book would probably be weaker with additional pages, but ideally I would have liked the pattern of two pages per number, with each number having it's own sturdy tab.

Moms and others are going to be able to get a lot of use out this book. The tabs are going to be good practice for chubby little fingers to learn with. And the color scheme and addition of animals and flowers are going to give us the opportunity to teach colors and the names of items first, and then numbers when that time comes.

There are birds (blue birds and owls), flowers, clouds, trees, snails, acorns, ladybugs and leaves, amongst other things to name.

A good selection for older babies. Start with naming colors and things, and then add on numbers later. ( )
