Fifteen Animals!
Details
Who could imagine fifteen Bobs in one book? Actually, that’s fourteen Bobs, and one Simon James Alexander Ragsdale the Third (he’s a turtle), which gives this the added dimension of being a unique counting book - count the Bobs, count the pets, count the bunnies, count the fish. And one person character, an earnest little boy who loves animals and happily sings:
I really like animals,
I like them a lot.
Fifteen animals is what I’ve got.
I’ve got fifteen animals.
They’re friendly and tame, and
I’ve given each one a special name.
Make that Bob.

Why We Love It
It's never too early to start the tradition of reading to a child! Storytime creates lifelong memories as well as providing youngsters with a wider vocabulary and more confident communication skills. Whether board books for infants, picture books for toddlers and young children, or early readers and chapter books for more confident readers, putting a book into a child's hands expands the boundaries of their imaginative possibilities.
