Maisy's First Numbers: A Maisy Concept Book

Maisy

by Lucy Cousins

What a concept! Bright colors and bouncy, rhyming text in a Maisy board book make early learning friendly and fun.

One stripy tiger, go go go! Two strolling tortoises, slow slow slow! What better way to learn to count than exploring animals with Maisy? Three butterflies flutter, four fish swim along, five snails enjoy the rain—and everyone comes back on the final spread for a recount.

Reviews

[Maria Brooks]

Maisy is a character young children can follow along with on many adventures, in this one, counting! Maisy counts three butterflies, four fish, and much more! This book is bright and colorful and lovely.

[Eva_Amaré]

We loved this one, because it's so colourful and the pictures look like someone our age drew them. The different animals are the best part. We can learn numbers, colors and animals all in one book.

[Kara Smith]

Fantastic book for babies and toddlers to start introducing them to numbers.

[Vicki]

Can we count to 5 with Maisy? A fun tie in with the numbers and objects on the page help young ones to count to 5!

[Pinky]

Count to from 1 to 5 with Maisy.

This book is great for young children to learn number concepts. this book allows children to count together with the book. The teacher can prepare flash cards with picture and the number on the back so the children can count the pictures.
