Enter a fascinating, ornately drawn cityscape and help a boy find
his dragon while counting objects from hot dogs to traffic lights.
In the heart of the city, among the taxis and towers, a small boy
travels uptown and down, searching for his friend. Readers will
certainly spot the glorious beast, plus an array of big-city icons
they can count. Is the dragon taking the crosstown bus, or
breathing his fiery breath below a busy street? Maybe he took a
taxi to the zoo or is playing with the dogs in the park. Steve
Light's masterful pen-and-ink illustrations, decorated with
meticulous splashes of color, elevate this counting book (numbers
1-20) to new heights. Maybe the dragon is up there, too
Penny Dale's cozy take on a favorite nursery rhyme takes on new
charm in a board book edition with an appealing new cover.
"There were ten in the bed and the little one said, 'Roll over,
roll over!'
So they all rolled over and Hedgehog fell out. . . ."
One by one, nine friends roll over and fall out of a boy's bed with
a bang, a thump, or a plop until . . . "I'm cold! I miss you!" the
boy says, and back in the bed they all go. In a sturdy board book
begging many repeat readings, Penny Dale's popular rendition of
this childhood song is as warm and toasty as a feather bed.
A bright and vivacious counting book for the very young featuring

learning opportunities by including numbers and descriptive words
matched to Dutch artist Mies van Hout's striking art. Little ones
can count the fish's stripes and the monkey's fingers, or learn the
letters in words such as whiskers, wings, and ears. Rendered in
bold hues that appeal to babies and pre-schoolers alike, this
sturdy counting book will be a reading-time favorite.
