About the Book
We have 8 little chicks.
add 1 more, and then . . .
we add 1 more.
Now we have _____(10).

Bright photographs of puppets, marbles, chicks, dogs, and other fun objects; rhyming text; and a fun game help children learn to add. This book teaches children how to connect numbers with a value and introduces them to mathematical equations. As the author explains, "This is a book about experiencing addition through hands-on play and exploration."
