AlbakiReads Editorial

Counting in a sumo stable

Counting from one to ten, then on to fifty and one hundred, is placed within scenes of daily life at a sumo stable. The book pairs numbers in English and Japanese with a Japanese word related to sumo culture, while showing wrestlers doing chores, practicing, sleeping, bathing, and eating together. Its counting practice is thus linked to a specific cultural setting and vocabulary, giving the pages more than a sequence of numbers to explore.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Toddlers beginning to practice counting
  • Young children curious about sumo and Japanese words
  • Adults seeking a counting book with Japanese cultural elements to share with young children
