Over twenty-five years ago Tana Hoban stunned the children's book world with her innovative black-and-white photographs in Count and See. Now she returns to the subject, and her glorious full-color pictures add a new dimension to the excitement and fun of counting when numbers are still fresh and something to be mastered. From one to one hundred -- Let's Count
For us, the fact that 16-19, 21-29, etc. are not pictured does not distract from this lovely Tana Hoban book at all. My daughter has fallen in love with Tana Hoban books and I find them delightful to share with her. The photographs are engaging and stimulate meaningful conversation between the two of us. This is my three year old daughter's favorite counting book. For one who wants to count to sixteen or seventeen, you do so as you count to twenty. You can also supplement the book by counting out cheerios to eighteen or nineteen afterwards. I just don't see it as a problem. Finally, I was really glad to have 100 pictured so that I could share that concept visually with my child without having to count out 100 manipulative objects myself.
