A beautiful new counting book by an award-winning author! There is so
much to count at the seashore - one lighthouse, two freighters, three
eagles - and on and on, until you get to ten. Then a pod of orcas
explodes out of the sea - so many, you can't begin to add them up.
But wait. At the end of the day, you can count from ten all the way
down again, as ten sailboats, nine fishboats, eight beach umbrellas -
and on and on - gradually settle for the evening or pack up and drift
away. A gentle and poetic counting book by the award-winning author
of Waiting for the Whales and Jessie's Island, Sheryl McFarlane's A
Pod of Orcas is just the right bedtime read for eager little
counters. Artist Kirsti Wakelin makes her picture book debut with
exquisite watercolor paintings that glow with dreamy light and
warmth. Parents and educators will appreciate the simple, yet
effective design. Each number appears spelled out and in numerical
form. And small pictorial "clues" will lead pre-readers to every
counting subject.
