Book Overview
Here, in one book, are the days of the week, the months of the year, the four seasons, the basic colors, and an exciting counting adventure -- all conceived, staged, and presented by the incomparable Anita Lobel. You can savor each of the three stories separately or think of them as three acts in one play. However you do it, a standing ovation is guaranteed

Magical

I got this book because I loved NINI HERE AND THERE so much. I absolutely love Anita Lobel's illustrations and if I could buy framed prints of the artwork in this book I would. This book is simple and sweet.
pure enchantment

This book should become a classic. The illustrations areincredible and echo Van Gogh. I bought it for a child who will be three in November and who is used to imagining what is brought forth by picture. Another child in our family always selected it as the book to be "read" first. As happens with children, they had internalized the book before I had. One day I said as a joke something like "blue shoes on Tuesday" -the reply was "No! No! Red Shoes on Tuesday." Great fun.

As a semi-retired Elementary Librarian, I find very hard to stay out of the Childrens book Dept. of bookstores. This new one by Anita Lobel has all the earmarks of a classic! It is lovely in every way. A must for kids of all ages.
A new classic for my family

My 18 month old daughter loves this book and I read it to her every night. The book contains 3 small stories. One counts the days of the week with 7 pairs of shoes, the next the months and the final story counts 1-10 with seashore imagery. The three stories are tied together by a striped cat you can watch for on virtually every page. The drawings are beautiful, with lots to look for on each page.
