Not just a counting book, it also teaches toddlers  colors, shapes, and counting by sets as the bears dance, jump, and play.  When it’s time to leave, the bears scurry out in groups as readers  count down to zero.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Back matter includes a review of the colors, shapes, numbers, and  sets presented. Hands-on interaction makes this book perfect for use  with bear counters and other classroom manipulatives.A rhyming text encourages children to participate by counting the bears  (which resemble gummy bears), naming their colors, and identifying  various shapes. \"First one is red.\/Yellow makes two.\/A green bear is  three.\/Count four with this blue.\" Illustrations and text proceed from 1  bear to 12 and clearly develop concepts for colors, shapes, adding and  subtracting, and grouping numbers in sets. Children can easily match  numbers with corresponding teddy bears and one large number; all are  placed on clean white backgrounds. The artwork is hand-drawn digitally  in Adobe Photoshop. This title would be a fun way to introduce these  basic skills.\u003cbr\u003e—\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003eBarbara Barbieri McGrath\u003c\/b\u003e has written over twenty books for children, including \u003ci\u003eThe Little Gray Bunny\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Little Red Elf\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Little Green Witch\u003c\/i\u003e, and many bestselling math concept books. Her love for writing, children and making learning fun was the inspiration for her first children's book, \u003ci\u003eThe M\u0026amp;M Brand Counting Book\u003c\/i\u003e, which sold over 1 million copies. She lives in Natick, Massachusetts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTim Nihoff \u003c\/b\u003eis the illustrator of \u003ci\u003eOtter Everywhere\u003c\/i\u003e (Candlewick).
