Delightful counting book!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
"In My Garden" is a whimsical counting book. The illustrations are humorous and will elicit plenty of giggles - common garden objects and plants are given human-like characteristics and make for fun reading and perusal. Besides teaching kids to count, the illustrations themselves make for interesting discussion 'Why are the onions crying mom:)' etc. The only reason I gave this book 4 instead of 5 stars is because the numbers covered go from 1-10, then skip on to 20, 30, 40, 50. It would have been useful for younger readers, especially preschoolers, to have the numbers 11-19 represented as well. All in all, a humorous counting book!

Finally, I'm also looking forward to storytime. My 2 year old loves this book and so do I. The right combination of beautiful illustartions (you should have posters too) with a sense of humor, with counting. She points at the grapes, peas with glasses and recognizes "grandpa." We'll be waiting for your next book!
A book you can count on to make you giggle

You can't help but smile at the fanciful, capricious illustrations in this delightful counting book. The watering can is grinning the flowers are dancing the shade trees are wearing sunglasses and you definitely don't want to mess with those crabby apples. As soon as I read this book at the library, I immediately took it home to my daughter for a happy evening of counting and reading.
