Take a stroll through Claire Winteringham's watercolor garden. You'll find flowers and trees, fruits and vegetables, and lots of critters-all waiting to be counted by young ones learning their numbers. Numerical groupings from 1 to 20 depict scenes from the country-chickens and eggs, rabbits in the carrot patch, and a cat minding the goldfish pond. A review section at the end of the book will help reinforce the numbers-with hints for the hard ones, of course!

About the Author:
For as long as she can remember, Claire Winteringham (British, b. 1956) has been painting with watercolors. Her work has been widely published and exhibited, notably with the Royal Watercolour Society and the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolour.
Review:
Luminous watercolors accompany children as they amble through this concept garden. Each colorful spread offers one image and a large numeral on either side; for example, the first spread depicts the number one and two, with corresponding lists of items to find in the picture. ("1 Apple, 1 Bush" and "2 Boots, 2 Geese," etc.) As the numbers increase to 20, it becomes trickier - and more fun - to discern the separate visual elements. --SLJ Review
