Join Kate on a journey around her, from home into the park, walking her dog. She has to cross a road on a 'zebra' crossing with her mum. There are many different ways to go in the park and thye firsdt thing she comes across are the squirrels. She plays in the leaves and jumps into the puddles, splash, splosh, and then checks out the frogs in the small pond. There are small ducks to feed and dragonflies to play with too. Kate searches high and low for the butterflies she knows must be hiding somewhere. Count from one to ten as you turn pages and count objects in the picture. She does find the butterflies and there are a few bees buzzing around as well.
The book is small enough for little hands, has bright glossy colours, is easy to read and has lots of things to see and spot. The colourful illustrations by Rachel burst out of each page and how they interact with numbers and counting makes this book perfect for learning. Additionally the reader will learn more about some of the animals around us everyday and in our local parks.
Highly recomended for 2-6 year olds, parents and carers will enjoy a positive experience of playing and learning with their child.
