Let me start by saying this is not my favorite book. I even hid it from Colm so that I would not have to read it anymore…he found it at the library and so now I am reading it again. I figured it must have some redeeming value if he likes it so much and it does, I am just tired of reading it. It teaches kids how to count backwards from ten, it has farm animals in it and talks about what sounds they make and it has TONS of repetition in it which is why it is a great book for kids. Colm can practically “read” it on his own it has so much repetition (and because his mother has read it to him 10,000 times!)
