Description

It begins with one lonely fish... Count along from one to ten, as each fish gobbles up the next. Just be careful - this book might bite! A clever concept based around the simple act of counting. Turn the page to see a fish on each spread, and count along as a fish on each page gobbles up the one before it. Then the ultimate finale - a huge mouth dominates the last page, gobbling every fish in its path... And we are back once again to one lonely fish!

Reviews

One lonely fish, sounds like the beginning of a sad story with a predictably happy ending. Nope, sorry fish... page by page a bigger fish gets chomped by an even bigger fish, until all nine are consumed by number 10 (a big, BIG fish).The triangle mouth shapes of the pages are fun to turn over as you sound out the gruesome chomp. My toddlers love this book and I love reading it to them.Highly recommended by Mr Magpie * Magpie That *
