Why is Wilbur Bunny all dressed up? Funny you should ask--the funny bunnies in his family are getting together for a special occasion and it's up to Wilbur (and you) to count them all! From one funny bunny standing on his head to ten funny bunnies providing a musical treat, the fun multiplies, well, like rabbits. This band of bunnies (almost) balance cups of punch, toot their whistles, make carrot-top soup, and generally supply a good time for one and all.
Wilbur is a delightful teaching assistant. Aspiring mathematicians will giggle as they count to 10, and for extra credit try to count the whole hopping flopping mob as they gather to celebrate a birthday. Each two-page spread depicts the number under discussion, as well as a list of the numbers up to that point, under which a motley crew of harebrained partygoers cavorts. Big sister or brother will enjoy Cyndy Szekeres's I Can Count 100 Bunnies, and So Can You! while the youngest members of the clan cut their teeth on this cheerful board book.
