One Red Rooster


One Red Rooster by Kathleen Sullivan Carroll, illustrated by Suzette Barbier is a good counting book for young children to read! It is a counting book full of colors, animals, and their sounds put together. It is a fun way for children to learn to count from one red rooster to ten pink pigs, as well as putting the number of animals with the sounds they make. An example of this is, "One red rooster went cock-a-doodle-doo and two black cows went moo moo moo!" I think young children and early grades would love to read this book. I think it helps with counting as well as beginner readers. Children could also see all the different animals that live on farms in this book because all the animals that are used and the illustrations are on farms.
