Sweet and simple counting book that goes from 1 to 10 as each little bear sits down. This reminded me of a classic animation from Sesame Street.

Most creative counting book for toddlers!

The rhymes are easy for a young child and relate to his/her world. The illustrations are also simple and beautiful. Great team!
