The Open Book

By Mike Brownlow and Simon Rickerty

A countdown rhyming book about ten little monsters making their way through a castle to…

“Ten little monsters waken from their sleep…” and make their way through a castle, but as they do, monsters get separated one by one until there’s only one left. Each page is a new number with a rhyme to the previous number. It’s such a fun way to practice numbers, rhyming and prediction skills since you can guess what number might come next, what the rhyming word is, and what happened to each monster as they get separated. The pictures are loaded with things to talk about and keep kids interested in the story as you’re reading.
