"Learn about bugs, and counting to ten"--

Our Review

This vibrant counting book introduces young readers to the fascinating world of insects while building essential early math skills from one to ten. Each page features beautifully detailed illustrations of different butterfly species alongside clear, bold numerals, helping children connect quantity with symbols through engaging visual examples. The book cleverly combines number recognition practice with basic entomology, showing various colorful butterflies in natural settings that will capture any child's curiosity about the natural world. Young learners will enjoy pointing to each insect as they practice their counting sequence and develop one-to-one correspondence.

What sets this counting concept book apart is its dual focus on mathematical foundations and science discovery, making it particularly valuable for children who love observing nature. The realistic butterfly illustrations provide excellent opportunities for parents to extend learning beyond numbers into discussions about insect characteristics, colors, and habitats. This approach to early childhood education helps develop both quantitative reasoning and scientific observation skills simultaneously. Children will return to these pages repeatedly, finding new details in the artwork while solidifying their understanding of basic numeracy through memorable, beautiful examples from the insect kingdom.
