About the Book

Count along with Ten Little Penguins and watch as they disappear!

Ten little penguins in the winter sunshine, one finds a gum drop then there are…nine! Learning to count has never been more fun. This unique board book counts from ten little penguins all the way down to one with adorable illustrations. With each page, one more penguin disappears. To demonstrate this concept, this book uses tactile buttons to help children count how many little penguins are left as the story progresses. Follow along with the easy rhythm and rhymes of this story and let your child touch the colorful, built-in penguin toys for a creative, hands-on approach to counting. Start young ones on a lifetime of loving reading and learning with Ten Little Penguins.
