How Many Sharks in the Bath?

By Bill Gillham
Illustrated by Christyan Fox

An activity book to be shared by adults and children, which can also be enjoyed by early readers.

How many penguins in the shower? How many ostriches in the bed? Here is a fresh approach to early number concepts. This fun activity book is a perfect way to help children understand quantities rather than just reciting them in order. It helps with the recognition of numerals and words, and what they stand for.

  • Helps to familiarise children with taking numbers out of order and associating the word and numeral to the quantities on the page.
