There is something about this that doesn't work for a younger child. The pictures are pleasing to the adult eye, but just not simple enough to appeal to a baby. Also some of the images are cropped so when you're counting you really have to keep a sharp eye. Would be good for a slightly older baby.
Charming book that I read to my 1st graders after learning about Wayne Thiebaud. They love the book because it is just at their reading level. Perfect for the art classroom. It is very small, but I use my document camera to display it to the class.
Toddler somewhat enjoys the pictures/words, but the colors are a subdued palette and don't delight anywhere near as much as I'd hoped. Certain images are readily recognizable---pie slices, cupcakes, crackers, cheese. Others are more obscure---sugar sticks---but the last page is very funny, with a gum ball machine, and a challenge to count them all. Overall, the subtle humor and beauty of the images makes this a great book to have on the shelf.
I love this book for it's quirky interpretation of numbers. Small and sturdy for little hands and it's a wonderful companion book to the Andy Warhol / Colors book. Very charming and my 2-year old daughter, who is learning about numbers right now, adores it.
I like that this book teaches numbers with art. I think it is great to expose little kids to professional paintings, and this is an engaging way to start that appreciation. Plus, Wayne Thiebaud's paintings look so tasty :) Who wouldn't want to count cakes?
The cutest most adorable book for any art loving family. I plan on giving this to everyone's baby for the rest of eternity. The reproduction of the artwork is crisper and more accurate than even some art history books. Very impressed.
I plan to give the book to my great niece, but I wish it was bigger. I like giving art to children to foster an early appreciation and joy that will remain with them all their lives. The small size then is okay and I hope she will enjoy it.
Wonderful! I wish I had had this when my kids were little. It has beautiful pictures and a lovely poem in it.
