Covering familiar North American berries like blueberries and strawberries, as well as lesser-known ones such as mul-berries and salmonberries, this fruity board book combines evocative adjectives with berry names, numbers, and colors in a sweet and simple way. Joy Newton’s botanical illustrations bring a vintage farm-stand feel to each page.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBerries are a healthy finger food toddlers are familiar with. Learning their names and the numbers from one to ten is sure to delight.* Children can learn to count from one to 10 in a berry appetizing way.This lovely counting book, reminiscent of old-fashioned botanical illustrations, introduces children to a variety of berries. Examples range from the well-known staples, such as raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, cranberries, and blackberries, through the less-familiar, such as mulberries, salmonberries, and elderberries, to the surprising, such as green grapes and red grapes. Yes, those are berries too. Each berry illustration is set against a soft cream background that further contributes to the antique feel of the book. The number—presented in both numerical and word form—is followed by a simple two-word descriptor of the berry in question: \"sour cranberries,\" \"tasty blackberries,\" \"plump green grapes,\" \"tart elderberries.\" The color of the text matches its berry. The presentation is deceivingly simple, yet it offers so much: numbers, colors, vocabulary in the form of berry names and adjectives, and, last but not least, art appreciation. Here's hoping it will also open up appetites and a taste for the simple, healthy pleasures in life. A simple, elegant book.\u003cbr\u003e—\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e, starred review\u003cb\u003eJerry Pallotta\u003c\/b\u003e is an award-winning author of children’s alphabet books and imaginative fiction, including \u003ci\u003eThe Construction Alphabet Book, The Icky Bug Alphabet Book\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eDory Story\u003c\/i\u003e.
