From colors and counting to opposites and first words, key early-learning concepts are presented in a bright, bold, engaging manner.Get toddlers ready for Halloween with this rhyming counting book.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Foil accents and layered, increasingly small die-cut windows invite young readers into a mildly haunted house. The windows are integrated into the Halloween decor on each spread, conveniently providing a way to easily grasp and turn the thick pages. The subtle shrinking of the windows by 1\/16 of an inch with each page turn is disguised by outlining the windows on the recto page. On the cover, the windows are 1 ½ inch wide by 2 ½ inches high; by the time readers reach “\u003cb\u003e9\u003c\/b\u003e sleepy cats,” the windows are only 1 inch by 1 ½ inch. The final spread with \u003cb\u003e“10\u003c\/b\u003e trick-or-treaters” has no windows, just 10 costumed children surrounded by examples of the Halloween symbols counted earlier. The rhymes work so well even young children can supply the word needed to complete each couplet. The cadence is also consistent. Young children will notice the decorative parts of the pictures, but the objects to be counted in each illustration are clear. These are typical Halloween fare: a skeleton, jack-o’-lanterns, bats, ghosts, spiders, cats. Many children (and adults) will assume they should count four frogs until they notice the text that identifies them as “\u003cb\u003e4\u003c\/b\u003e playful toads”—if they see it. On that page, the black lettering on a dark green background is particularly hard to discern.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This count is not a bit scary. \u003ci\u003e(Board book. 1-4)--Kirkus\u003c\/i\u003ePatricia Hegarty began working in children's publishing more years ago than she cares to remember!
