Catch That Goat!

A counting book with a difference!
02 Jul 2009

Amelia and I run amok with Ayoka’s missing goat around a market in Nigeria. It’s a counting book with a difference, so we count how many items are left on market stalls after the goat has ‘visited’ them and then count them all up at the end when we catch him. This really appeals to Amelia, particularly as there is so much food illustrated here and many things that we have never come across before. It is bright and fun and Amelia loves to spot where the goat is on each page or where it has been.
