Candy 1 to 20 by Laurie Wolf and Pam Abrams - OPTIONAL

Wolf, Laurie and Pam Abrams Candy 1 to 20. Chronicle Books, 2011. 20 pgs. Language: G. Violence: G. Sexual content: G. This bright, colorful book uses photographs of candy to illustrate the numbers 1 through 20. The number 5, for example, is drawn with five rainbow-colored gummy worms. Twelve Hershey kisses create the number 12. No other text accompanies the candy numbers. While the concept is fun and the photos are pretty, it may be preferable to use a subject other than candy to illustrate the concept of counting. Pre-K, EL (K-3). OPTIONAL. Reviewer: Caryn.
