An equally delightful companion to Sloat ...
...'s first book, From Letter to Letter (1989), with a full page for each number up to ten and double spreads for 20, 30, etc. to 100. A picture key indicates what items can be found in the designated quantity: e.g., 30 dinosaur bones (arranged to form the numerals), dinosaurs, their eggs, paint pots used by an artist creating a dinosaur mural, and more. Time appealingly rendered scenes are nicely varied, and cleverly devised for subject interest as well as number inclusion. One of the best counting books to come along in a while.
