10 Little Black Birds by Amy Elizabeth Mortensen


10 Little Black Birds


Children love to learn, especially if it is fun. This book will help develop counting skills.

Why is learning how to count important? It is the foundation for math. Numbers and counting are the first math concepts children learn. Both are needed before children can learn to solve simple math equations.

The 10 Little Black Birds book helps a child learn to count from 10 to 0. Hand actions were included to aid with learning.

This book is suitable for preschoolers and kindergartners

Excerpt:
10 little black birds sitting on a wire. 
Up came a gust of wind and one flew away. 
9 little black birds sitting on a wire. 
Up came a gust of wind and one flew away.

About the author:

Angelina Beckham is a mother to 5 sons. She loves sharing old-fashioned values with them. She loves teaching them how to cook and bake so that they can be self-sufficient as adults. But one of the most exciting hobbies for her besides introducing childhood stories about her favourite animals and animal and monster movies with her children, is to explain why she has a collection of these action figures, toys [and other memorabilia].

Her 'My Favourite Animals' series is based on animals that she grew up playing with in her backyard, treehouse, playhouse, and is also based on animals that she and her sons are fascinated with today.

It matters not if most people think the creatures chosen for her series look 'ugly'; to her and her sons they are beautiful, valuable additions to the planet; and she intends to share these with young readers, and old, alike.
