One Little Chicken: A Counting Book by David Elliott, illustrated by Ethan Long features counting and dancing chickens.
Long's quirky, enthusiastic chickens are hilarious, as they dance the night away. Dances shown include the bunny hop, swing, ballet, hula, ballroom, bump and grind, cha cha, shimmy and shake, bugaloo, and jive and jitterbug. Favorite images include bunny hop, swing, bump and grind, and last image.
The font is large and bold, and the pictures are big enough to use this for a story...more

A counting book that goes up to 10 in which chickens do all kinds of crazy dancing and singing. Chickens are given human characteristics. Backgrounds are all monochromatic and steer the reader to the next page.

Chickens, dancing and counting. A great concept, especially for a general preschool storytime audience. The story flows very well with entertaining numbers and sentences. The illustrations are very nice with good character drawings which were attractive towards my visually detailed observant young boys and girls.
Don't be a chicken, get up and dance! Count and dance along as the chickens on the farm dance in all kinds of fun ways and styles.
Great book to teach not only counting, but different dance styles.
Great book to teach not only counting, but different dance styles.
A fun book to read and exaggerate with motion for dance lovers.
Watch the little chicken's dance, while counting to ten by chance.
Really fun words and hysterical illustrations!
I love dancing chickens.
Counting Week
For a book about dance and feeling the beat, this is somewhat disappointing. The rhymes are jerky and at times awkward. Funny pictures, though...
Another fun book to get kids moving in storytime. I had them move like all of the chickens in the story.
counting book that doubles as fodder for music/movement class. lively chickens.
A great dancing and counting book!
Used for WTBI Movement.

David Elliott is the author of THE COOL CRAZY CRICKETS and THE TRANSMOGRIFICATION OF ROSCOE WIZZLE. He says of AND HERE'S TO YOU!, "My neighbor’s rooster and I were having a disagreement. I wanted to sleep in the morning; he wanted to crow. The rooster won, of course. The first verse of AND HERE'S TO YOU! is a tribute to his victory and to the joys found in simply following your nature."
