"The artwork is reminiscent of the lithographic method or of a negative image; the colors are bold and, in some instances, nontraditional. The last two pages of each book list all of the landmarks or items in Spanish and in English ... 123 Texas contains images of astronauts, armadillos, and the Cadillac Ranch. This series is recommended for public libraries and bookstores." --Criticas "These books are really colorful and fun." --The Examiner "Perfect for teaching your tiny Texan numbers (or explaining that there's more to Texas than '80s Dallas reruns), the book is filled with modern illustrations in bright, bold colors that introduce ten of the state's memorable symbols." --Daily Candy Dallas "We seldom delve into books for the small set, but your very littlest Texan probably needs 123 Texas, A Cool Counting Book." --The Dallas Morning News "We Texans are proud of our state and this board book helps babies learn early about the icons and symbols of which we are most proud. Great for keeping tiny Texans busy during a long road trip!" -- Parent Wise: Austin "Every true Texas toddler needs this book this Christmas!" -- Modern Baby & Children "Every true Texas toddler needs this book this Christmas!" -- Modern Baby & Children
