Cincuenta en la cebra / Fifty On the Zebra Contando con los animales

This bilingual counting book is a fun-filled encounter with a zany host of animals--10 dragons on parade, 11 oysters at the opera, and 18 dalmatians showing off their diamonds. As they count, readers will enjoy answering the questions relating to the colorful cut-paper pictures while they review concepts such as colors, size, and shape.
