Publisher Description: Discover nature by the numbers in this gorgeous, innovative counting book. The natural world is full of sets of numbers: from birds' wings in twos and clover leaves in threes to deer hooves in fours and octopus arms in eights. This book uses playful rhyming text to explore these numerical sets in vibrant detail, ending with the stars in the sky--a number set too big to count! |
