"Ten What?" is a fun book and tool to teach counting. The illustrations by Sylvie Selig are beautiful and surreal. Each page is filled with color and movement. In this way, the book's success lies within the way the illustrations interact with a story to create a unique mystery and counting book. ( )

A charming counting book that also tells a mystery story, this work is funny and engaging for beginning readers. The colorful cartoon illustrations tickle the funny bone with bird detectives and alligator and elephant supporting stars on their journey from one to ten. ( )
