My Review

I just received the perfect fall book for my little one, brightly colored cover shows a big tom turkey, and lovely fall leaves. The book is made of study cardboard, and just the right size for small hands.
Besides cute pictures with rhyming words, the little ones will be learning to count to ten without realizing it. When you read this one to your child you both will be giggling at the cute pictures that go along with the story.
What a delightful little book to share with that special toddler in your life, and a great introduction to fall and Thanksgiving.
I received this book though BookLook Bloggers and was not required to give a positive review.
