| Can
you count? It's easy, isn’t it, especially when there are pictures
showing all the items you are asked to count. However in this book
you are going to be asked to count in ways that you never thought about.
To add more fun, there is a poem with each illustration. Let’s try
one:
Sweet Cherries
Apples are crabby, berries are blue
Cherries are sweet and so are you!
How many cherries do you see?
Please don’t count them separately
Pair the cherries bunch by bunch
Add them quick before they’re punch!
For a fun game, read each riddle to solve its puzzle! (Jean Bellavance
