"One fine morning, a rooster decided he wanted to travel." In
strikingly designed, colorful collage illustrations and a beguiling
simple text, Eric Carle takes his young readers on a trip with the
rooster and his companions. As he travels, the rooster is joined by
two cats, three frogs, four turtles and five fish, offering the
child a graphic introduction to the meaning of numbers, number sets
and addition within the context of an entertaining story. When
night falls, the rooster's friends find he has made no provisions
for their food or shelter and, disappointed, they abandon the
expedition -- once again in sets of five, four, three and two, but
this time in a declining series. Finally the rooster, too, decides
that he has seen enough of the world and that he is, in fact, a
little bit homesick.
Eric Carle believes in letting children make learning
discoveries at their own pace. This book can be read and enjoyed
for its story and its beautiful illustrations alone; however, the
child who is ready to begin to think mathematically will find
additional pleasures in the opportunities presented in the text,
the pictures and the diagrams for learning basic arithmetic
concepts.
