Rabbit loves any book that has "noisy" in the title; this book was waiting for us at my parent's house in FL when we went for a visit earlier this month(my folks found it at their local library). ROAR was a great hit! The sweet story about a lion cub looking for playmates is punctuated by plenty of opportunities to be noisy, counting form one to ten. The illustrations are wonderful and include many of our favorite animals(ie: flamingos, crocodiles, monkeys, hippos, and of course li More...

This book would be a great introduction to counting in Kindergarten! It a simple counting book that has a cute spin on it and relates to animals. This could also be a great book for learning new vocabulary!

This is a cute counting book that I use early in the kindergarten year for math. It is a good book for young children to "read" on their own too. I would suggest this book for preschoolers mostly.

This book is about a lion cub that keeps roaring and everytime he/she roars he chases animals away. I would use this book to engage the children during a read-aloud and teach number order.

This is the type of counting book that is easy to forget its a counting book. The lion cub keeps scaring away potential friends by roaring. Review of savanna animals.

This is an awesome storytime book, but if you want the kids to help you with the "ROARing," it's really important to have good control over the group. I've used with great success before, but today the kids were not up to the roaring.

Great rhythm and rhyme. Little lion cub visits animals (in increasing number) as he explores the grassland.
