Summary
Poetic descriptions of different animals highlight the numbers from one to ten and their multiples of ten, such as a sloth having three toes while a centipede has thirty feet. By the creators of A Book of Flies.
Amazon.com description: Product Description:

"Fiddlesticks! Six? The best? Poppycock!
You want TEN TIMES BETTER? Dial a croc.
I have SIXTY teeth. I'm a great masticator.
(That means I chew first, and ask questions later.)"

RICHARD MICHELSON and the late LEONARD BASKIN show that learning to count and to multiply by ten need never be boring! In a counting book like no other, a variety of animals duel for the honor of the number they represent. Backed up by interesting natural history information, the poems are clever, sometimes even preposterous. Bold watercolors convey the animals' conviction that their number is undoubtedly the best! Children will laugh their way along the road to numerical literacy.
