It's lovely to handle a touchy-feely counting book that glitters and crackles. Maisy we know, and we always like to spot her and her chums out and about. They are amongst animals - the unclothed kind - unlike Maisy and her chums who are clothed and therefore of a higher order. There's one soft and stripy zebra, three silky penguins, and four woolly sheep. The puddles crinkle, the stars twinkle, and the chicken wears a pink ballet tutu. The counting is a bit muddled - when do we count the friends as distinct from the animals? But never mind, some counting gets done and we all have a good time.
