Five Little Ladybugs

Rating:
Summary: Ho Hum Counting Book
Review: Five Little Ladybugs is one of many counting books. It has holes throughout that hide or reveal the bugs as the story goes but the bugs themselves don't do anything. This is not a very exciting book for young kids who are fascinated by pop-up or tab books.

Summary: Brilliantly colored book that helps with counting
Review: I think this beautiful book with an interesting rhyme is fun to look at as well as read. The bugs are three-d (for lack of better description) and are different looking.
A fun aspect of this book is that while the story makes it sound as if the bugs were being eaten, they all seem to show back up at the end of the book. I like the illustrations. They're very appropriate for small children and are brilliantly colored.
It's a fun book, easy enough to read (even over and over again), and it's a book that'll help with the practice of counting backwards.
