Summary- This book is a great and fun way for young children to learn to count up to 10 and back down to 1. They will also see a lot of their favorite animals while reading this book. You can follow the rabbit as he hops along to deliver a birthday card to his nieces and nephews. Along the way he meets all the animals from 1-10, and then comes across even more animals as he bounces back down to 1.
Extension Activity- You could make number flash cards and have the number on one side and then a picture on the other. For example if the number was 4 on the backside of the card you could have 4 rabbits that way you are interacting numbers and animals.
