"[A] celebration of homonyms.... attention to detail in each colourful collage is mesmerizing." - The Waterloo Region Record Praise for Ones and Twos: "This delightful concept book brings visual literacy to the forefront, supported by a minimal text.... The simple descriptive verses ... are spot-on to reinforce images of numeracy, sorting, paring, common-object recognition, and the daily lives of young children.... The charming collages are the stars of the show and will inspire curiosity" - Starred Review, School Library Journal "... Jocelyn's imaginative collages help create a book rich in playful details, with a storyline told through pictures that provide depth to the concepts explored in the text.... Sophisticated and yet endearingly simple, Ones and Twos can be enjoyed by both very young children and the adults who read it with them." - Starred Review, Quill & Quire
