This delightfulnbsp;counting book of poetry and pictures on the Texas 2x2 Reading Listnbsp;captures animals by the numbers. Vivid, playful poems tell the stories of one elk, two birds, three fish--from one through ten and then many--as they go about their day either solo or within a special circle of friends.nbsp;The marvelousnbsp;photographs allows readers to peek at some common creatures that enjoy the company of others.
