1, 2, 3 To The Zoo

1,2,3 To The Zoo by Eric Carle is a fun way to get kids to count from one to ten by using animals that live at the zoo! The pictures tell the story of different animals on a train on their way to the zoo. The book starts with 1 elephant then 2 hippopotamuses and so on up to 10 different birds. This book is good at helping younger children learn concepts of counting with numbers and relating them to things on a page, such as animals. The pictures in this book are very bright and I think this book would help younger children learn their animals, colors, on top of learning to count to ten.
