Van and Pratt play with numbers in a fun and easy way.  Two is too much and one is a lot.  Or is it?  The drawings are simple and this would be a great easy read aloud.  I can see my students checking it out to read it and it would build confidence in a young reader.  The words are simple but it is fun.   

I like the friendships in the book and the crazy noses!  It has fun illustrations and lovely watercolors.  The pictures are very calming and I can see an art lesson, math and nature in kindergarten jumping off the pages.  It is fun!
