Mouse Numbers: A Very First Counting Book

Plot

A determined mouse goes on an expedition, purple umbrella in hand. The mouse ventures from his zero-shaped burrow entrance, past one toadstool, up and down two hills, across three stepping stones, counting all the way to the beach-where he relaxes until the tide turns and a big fish with ten scary teeth sends him scurrying home, counting back down to zero. This wordless, but not quiet, story will engage young children, who will enjoy spotting the numerals in the mouse's landscape and discovering things to count when they go on adventures of their own.
