Number Garden

With the help of her animal friends, Marigold the tortoise guides young children through the pages of this interactive board book, where they visit a variety of gardens and practise counting up to ten.  

Starting in the orchard, Marigold invites readers to count a range of objects before moving on to the hot house, rockery, pond, vegetable patch and meadow. Each wildlife setting contains its own distinct vegetation and creatures, and a factual section at the end of the book explains what lives and grows in the different habitats. 

From crickets and dragonflies to fruit trees and vegetables, the busy pages are bursting with outdoor delights to identify and count. A wealth of questions throughout the book will engage curious readers and help them to understand the world around them.  

Sturdy flaps to lift, peep holes providing a glimpse into the next garden, and an abundance of detailed illustrations will help children to develop their predictive, observation and counting skills. Nature and numeracy are seamlessly combined in this fun, colourful and informative book for young readers.
