One Hundred Shoes
Ross has produced another winner! Sometimes picture books involving numbers or counting seem contrived, but this one just rattles along. ‘Ow!’ the tale begins. Centipede has hurt his toe. But which one? Having found it (at last) and kissed it better, Mum decides he ought to have some shoes, so off they go and buy fifty lefts and fifty rights. But what a long time it takes to put on his shoes the next day … This clever, witty book is very satisfying and each spread demands careful attention to detail! The text also offers lots of maths opportunities.
