This bright picture book with flaps turns a shopping expedition into a counting adventure. Dad attempts to supervise helpful toddler Anna as the numbers 1 to 5 appear in descending order, with Anna's reward of 1 ice-cream at the end. When a two-year-old Anna tested this book for me, she loved exploring the pictures and opening the flaps, although she was slightly bothered by Anna's ever increasing disasters... 'Oops, Anna!' This child found several ways of counting the shopping items, listed together at the back of the book. Certainly there is lots of fun and the pictures are vibrant in pinks, purples, oranges and reds. This would be a good addition to a nursery library, and the tough flaps should withstand eager fingers.
