Translated from Japanese, this book is a collection of pages that look at the number 100. Each page is a drawing of an animal (or kid) that the reader can, if they choose, count all the way up to 100. Hidden within the pictures are humourous texts to read and pictures to find. My four year-old's particular favourite? The farting mole. There are also opportunities to compose, decompose and recompose 100 as the author/illustrator has chosen to use colours, patterns and groupings to show different...more

Get a handle on what 100 *looks* like in this engaging picture book. Lots of charming details make these scenes of 100 cartoony critters (100 moles, 100 elephants, 100 sheep...) amusing and interactive. Each critter has individual characteristics, a few make tiny remarks to one another, and each two-page spread includes a clue or question to keep kids hunting for surprises (eg. "There are 100 moles. How many are snuggled up with a frog?") A few more surprises to find are listed in the back. At t...more

100 mice, cats, moles, elephants...great color sense, great composition, great variety. Way cute animals. Little comments & questions are sprinkled throughout the tableaus; the questions lead to search-and-find challenges (Where's the mouse with the red ribbon? Are there enough berries for every bird?). There's a clue on every page as to the next animal, plus a page at the back of extra items to search for.

The illustrations are so appealing I want to make a flannel set to go with, for post-...more

This is a wonderful books for grades K-1. Shows a variety of things in a group of 100. Perfect for kindergarten. My grandson loved this one and sat for a long time just counting the objects on each page. I think this is one kids will checkout repeatedly.

Illustrations are bright and colorful. Objects are arranged to give a variety of counting experiences in grids, curvy lines, by color, etc.

Such a cool book! Each double-page spread has 100 things (cats, kids, moles, etc.), plus an extra seek-and-find element (how many cats have striped tails? are there enough berries for everyone?) and lots of fun captions to read. Includes an extra "Did you see..." section on the last page for fans of re-reading. Bright colors and simple shapes; begs to be given as a gift.

The best counting book since One Is a Snail, Ten Is a Crab! Children can count 100 adorable, brightly colored animals, people, or objects on each page. There are also 14 Easter eggs hidden in the illustrations.

This is a fun book for learning to count to and visualize 100. Although, my son was tired of counting after the first page. I would recommend reading this book over several days - a different page each day. That way you won't get sick of counting up to 100.
Samantha
Every page contain 100 of something (i.e. mice, ants etc) and there's something that makes the group different (i.e. all of the cats are different; find how many cats are striped). I think fans of Where's Waldo or the Walter Wick books would enjoy this title.
Angie
This is the best counting to 100 book yet! It has wonderful seek and find elements, clues for the pages to come and fun details to find...not to mention the super awesome japanese illustrations. I want to get this book as a gift, but for who?
Elizabeth Lan
Lots of fun, colorful pictures. 100 items on each page, which is a little tough for a counting book, but there are other activities and things to look for as well.
Kristen
This isn't a "read to the class" kind of book, but is awesome for reading one-on-one and counting. Count these super cute creatures to get in some "1 to 100" practice!
Bridget R. Wilson
My kids who love I Spy books, Where's Waldo, etc., are really going to like this book. Not sure about using it in story time, but it could be fun.
Jennifer L
My son (2 at the time) loved this book. It's great for toddlers and kids just learning how to count. The illustrations are beautiful!
Kami
You get to count little groups of adorable animals. I can't think what you WOULDN'T love about it.
