Wibbly Pig Likes Dancing!

My Very First Book of Numbers
Eric Carle
This is a very cleverly designed book
which will help your child learn
about the numbers 1 to 10. It is
divided into what one may call two
pages per page - so where you would
normally have one page, this book
has two pages, one at the top and
the other directly below it.
Your child picks a number on the top
page and then tries to match it to
the same number of fruit in a picture
on the bottom page. The numbers
on the top pages are bolstered by
corresponding numbers of black
squares - so, if the number itself
does not give your little one a clue
regarding what number of fruit he
should be looking for, he or she can
count the squares and then take
his/her cue from there. Really great
book!
Wibbly Pig is so versatile! He can
dance! He can bounce! He can sing!
He can hide! He can splash and he
can even dress himself up in this
really cute book. After Wibbly Pig
has done all these feats, the book
asks your little one the million dollar
questions - can you dance, bounce,
sing, hide, splash and dress up too!
This is a really nice interactive book
that will put a smile on your face and
engage your little one - who might
not even wait for the questions to
begin dancing, bouncing (on your
sofa!) and doing all the other fun
things that this cute lil' pig can do!
Of course, as is usual with children's
books, the illustrations provide
many avenues for communication
and learning. Great book!
p.s. - you might need to fill your fruit
bowl before reading this book with
your little one!
