1 is One is classic Tasha Tudor. The illustrations are of days gone by ~ bonneted girls and a boy writing on a slate; simple, natural settings with some of a whimsical nature (I especially enjoyed the "12 baby birds learning how to sing"). In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the text teaches the numbers 1 through 20 in a rhythmical way. A joy for adult and child alike!
Tasha Tudor's 1 is One teaches children numbers with a lyrical, poem-like text. The illustrations look like they would be perfect for a spring calendar. I would recommend this book to anyone whos children are bored with the semi- mediocre picture books out today. 1 is one duckling swimming in a dish 2 is two sisters making a wish 3 is three swallows up in the sky 4 is four sheep nibbling rye 5 is five eggs in a pretty round nest 6 is six children all dressed in their best 7 is seven apples on a little apple tree 8 is eight daffodills you are picking for me The book goes on the the number twenty. This is one for the picture book lover in all of us.
A classically illustrated Caldecott Honor Book counts to twenty in rhyming short sentences. The author notes, "There will...always be children who must learn to count. Teach them also to enjoy the process and to count those things that are important to them," and she does.
very sweet. my 20 month old loves. she loves looking at the pictures and what might be hidden in each one. I am hoping it also will help her learn to count :)One character in the book is writing numbers on a slate....that is the only part of the book that is not completely timeless. But it definitely is more in keeping with the gentle theme of the book than for example a child typing on an ipad....
This book is a relic. It was published in the '50s, but its illustrations harken back to a time much earlier than that. The illustrations are sweet and elaborate and appear on every page. The text is simple, and my 2-year-old likes to finish all of the sentences for me. I can't think of any other book that would introduce a 2-year-old to words like "heath," "slate," "rye," and "gourd." It's a simple and charming little time capsule.
This book was great. I read it to my cousin's children ages 6-8. The illustrations are beautiful. The children liked looking at the pictures which are very detailed and there is something new to find each time you look. I loved that not only does the book show the number (1,2,3) but it is also in text (one,two,three). We also referred to the pictures for a visual aid on what a group of that number would look like. Not only will children learn the numbers in the numeral and text for up to the number twenty, but they will also extend their vocabulary.
As ever, when it came time to give a gift book to a new mother --this one came to the forefront of my mind. In gentle watercolors illustrating not only beautiful children, but plants, flowers, small pets-Tasha yet again leads the child, to hear and see the first set of numbers to learn. The ever-beautiful pictures stay in the mind's eye and help imprint the numbers of all the favorite items as we count up to ten.
I bought this for my son's first birthday even though we've still got a couple of months to go ;) It is a darling counting book, with classic vintage Tasha Tudor illustrations that you will appreciate. Very sweet little children on each page. Well written. I highly recommend it!
