Mouse Count - Ellen Stoll Walsh

Descriere

A hungry snake finds ten little mice and counts them into a jar for dinner. But the clever mice soon outwit the snake and uncount themselves--until they've all gotten away. An unusually pleasing rehearsal of the numbers from one to ten.--Kirkus Reviews. Full color. In this charming companion to Mouse Paint, Ellen Stoll Walsh introduces the concept of counting forward and backward in a suspenseful story that will keep young readers guessing. The rhythm follows the illustrations in a glissando; one can almost hear the background music.-- The Horn Book
