Publisher's Synopsis
Learn to count from 1 to 20 with the King of the Elephants! Babar, the best-selling elephant king, is back and he's ready to help young readers master counting from 1 to 20. Ever the good father (and the good teacher), he lets his children, Pom, Flora, and Alexander, master 1 to 10 on their own. During a walk with Zephir the monkey, they spy one maribou bird, two hot-air balloons in the sky, three race cars . . . Then Babar personally teaches his children and his young readers to count to 20. At the end of the book, there is a special reward; a Royal Certificate that affirms the new skill: "I, Babar, King of the Elephants, do hereby proclaim that you have learned to count to 20." Babar's Counting Book, first published in 1986, continues to delight youngsters and to show them that numbers are all around them.
