Search and Find a Number of Numbers
What a welcome return from the team behind Search-and-Find The Alphabet of Alphabets, with this new book focusing on numbers. It is as jam-packed and fun as the original, but instead of finding objects beginning with a specific letter, readers must find different amounts of things. This includes finding thirteen different creepy things in a haunted house, making sure there are two of every animal on Noah’s Ark and matching each of America’s fifty states to their two-letter code.
A Number of Numbers contains twenty-six different spreads showing diverse scenes such as a construction site, a Mystery Express train and a crazy golf course. The pages are wonderfully illustrated by Sanders, whose sense of style and colour results in every spread being unique but recognisable. Children will enjoy how interactive this book is, as they search and find and count. As in the last book, readers will also endeavour to spot a little white mouse on each page. There is so much other stuff happening that children could spend hours combing through the book. Visual jokes appear throughout and will appeal to both young and old. Yet again, kudos to Wide Eyed Editions for continuing to publish such highquality children’s picturebooks.
