Review Quotes

"In one of the most popular counting rhymes in Spanish folklore, 10 adorable puppies decrease by one with each page turn. Large, appealing illustrations will make this a favorite for storytime presentations; an excellent source in helping children to develop prereading skills, and a fun way to introduce them to early math concepts such as addition and subtraction." - School Library Journal
