Author Devin Scillian and illustrator Pam Carroll weave their magic around the symbols of Americana that make us proud in One Nation: America by the Numbers, a follow-up to A Is for America: An American Alphabet.
"I count to THREE just like that / I count the corners on my hat / A THREE-cornered hat from a Boston store / One just like the Minutemen wore / Or count the ships. There's an idea / The Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria."
More than a counting book, One Nation illuminates the landmarks and treasures that are uniquely American.
This book has a story but it is challenging for a toddler to read. It has lots of words unlike other counting books. It has a story to it, but once again, too wordy. It's a good way for children to approach to American History.
