My First Number Board Book by DK Publishing, BOARD BOOK. DK, 2011. $6. 9780756688561

BUYING ADVISORY: ESSENTIAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

My First Number Board Book will not only help children learn number but is full of bright, colorful photos. DK goes beyond a simple counting to 10 book and adds photos of 20, 50 and 100 items. The book then continues on to asking questions and creating interactive communication between reader and listener.

We recommend this board book for every home and library. The photographs are eye-catching. The easy to read text will help beginning readers recognize numbers. We really enjoyed this great book.

This book is like most number books. Bright colors, big font, and relatable objects. The interesting thing about this book is that there is a math section in the back. This book can be something a child grows up with. It has counting, addition, and subtraction. So not only is this book good for beginners but also can be used to teach math. Its two in one!

[Cara Byrne · Rating 3 out of 5]

This board book is for more advanced children who have a sense of subtraction, addition, and colors. It's a smart board book that still interests my 18 month old with its bold photographs of fruit and animals on a stark white backdrop, but the challenges to comprehend 100 and math problems will be better int the future.

Colorful and bright

My 2 yr old has a disorder called Optic Nerve Hypoplasia, and although he has vision, he is legally blind...This book really captured his interest with beautiful pictures of things any child would like to look at...Great book for toddlers learning to count, as this makes him WANT to learn

An excellent book to start your little one learning numbers. The pictures are bright and are recognizable everyday objects to make the learning more fun.
