10 digits allow you to write all the numbers, which represent amounts, calculations, or counting something. Practice recognizing each number that is represented in five ways: in digits, with fingers, with dice, and in lower case and cursive letters. Have fun counting the colorful animals from 1 to 20. Can you count higher? 

Labrecque's PHD in written language learning shines in One Brown Bear. The pictures and text engage young readers (or counters) with cute animals doing funny things. I really like how she shows all the ways a number can be written or represented.
