Every child learns to count from 1 to 10. But not every teaching method
also doubles as a nonfiction introduction to the growth cycle of an
animal! Young readers will count along from a single nest and two caring
parents as three baby songbirds eat, open their eyes, test their
toeholds, take time to grow flight feathers, and finally leave the nest
together. Numerals accompany the text on each spread to further
reinforce the counting concept and encourage association with the
different forms.
