AlbakiReads Editorial

A playful challenge built around counting

Whales, baboons, rainbows and pyramids provide the counting material in this picture book, while a deliberately strict rule keeps insisting that the count stop at one. The tension between that instruction and the many things on the page gives the book its interactive premise: children are invited to test whether they can outsmart the rule and count higher. Designed as a read-aloud, it turns a basic counting concept into a playful exchange between book and audience.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 4–8 exploring counting
  • Families and educators looking for an interactive read-aloud
  • Young readers who enjoy humorous picture books

Book overview

A hilariously irreverent picture book about counting that children will love to outsmart!

You know how to count, right? GREAT! There are LOTS of fun things to count in this book: whales, baboons, rainbows, pyramids . . .There's just rule. You must ONLY ever count to ONE. So don't even about THINK bigger numbers. OK?!

Get ready to show off your skills in this fun new counting book! But not everything is as it seems . . . is this book really only about counting to "ONE?" Because there are SO MANY fun things that you could count. But wait -maybe there's a way to outsmart the book . . . and count all the way up to 100!

A fun and interactive read-aloud experience, perfect for fans of B. J. Novak's international bestseller The Book With No Pictures.
