by Margaret Chamberlain (Illustrator), Andrew Weale (Author)
There's one newt in a suit, and he's looking very dapper. He's joined by two snazzy-looking flies in ties, three cockatoos in high-heeled shoes, and so on up to ten. This is a counting book with lots of well-dressed animals going about their business.
What's not to love about bees in dungarees or bats in top hats? Everything's vibrant and colourful. It draws you in, and will have you poring over every page.
