Written by Audrey Wood and Illustrated by Bruce Wood (2004)
This book is a simple underwater counting story, that is playful in verse. The story has a nice flow and the picture are very colorful. I think this is a great book for very young children and will be a book that is read over and over again. I found myself wondering how the next fish was going to disappear and enjoying the colorful illustrations.
This would be a book I used with younger children to work on counting. It would be both a read aloud book and a book just to have the in the classroom. With the younger students I think it would be fun to create our own themed counting book. Just as I was wondering how the next fish was going to disappear I think students will be as well and this book could be used to discuss asking questions with younger students. If I were to use it with older children it would be to show them a simple example of music in language and have them come up with a rhyming counting poem of their own.
