Media Reviews
This zany number book collaboration between Yeoman and Blake is tremendously successful. Verse and illustration complement each other with delicious absurdity. * Books for Keeps *
Learning to count doesn't get more delightful than this. A witty, perfectly shaped building story with glorious illustrations. * LoveReading4Kids *
A firm favourite... Problem solving for the pre-schooler and reception set, at it's best. * THEBOOKBAG *
Wonderful flowing text, combined with lively and colourful pictures make this another sure-fire success from this inspired pairing. * Parents in Touch *
An offbeat counting book with characteristic humour and inventiveness, which will be recited in homes all over the world * Booktrust *
