2003 Award
(by Philippe Dupasquier, Candlewick $6.99 Score:
) Flip the sturdy pages of this wordless book to see a small drama unfold, as an ever-growing number of creatures chase each other. From one to nine the line grows longer until a wee-small surprise turns everyone around at ten. A clever counting book. 2–5.
Age: Toddlers,Preschool. Award Year: 2003.
2003 Award
(by Jessica Spanyol, Candlewick $14.99 Score:
) Bold paintings with many items on each page with sets of one through ten. This is more than a simple counting book. It enlarges the concept of one-ness, two-ness, and more with multiple things to count and talk about with preschoolers. A worthy sequel to Carlo Likes Reading.
Age: Toddlers,Preschool. Award Year: 2003.
2003 Award
(by Virginia Miller, Candlewick $13.95 Score:
) With each turn of the page, Bartholomew plays under and in a beautiful old apple tree as a small story unfolds. Best of all, the apples on the tree turn red one at a time so there is something new to count at every turn. A concept book that's on the mark for 2–5. Age: Toddlers,Preschool,Early School Years. Award Year: 2003.
2004 Award
( by Cheryl Willis Hudson/photos by John-Francis Bo, Candlewick $14.95 Score:
) Marvelous photos of kids doing hands-on things are punctuated with simple rhymes that show and tell familiar things hands can do. Some of the activities are definitely not toddler-esque, as in tying shoes. But never mind—they can untie their shoes! 2–5.
Age: Toddlers,Preschool,Early School Years. Award Year: 2004.
