PRESCHOOL
Hughes, Shirley

Alfie's 1 2 3

(4) PS Alfie's back (along with little sister, Annie Rose, and other old friends) as the star of this counting romp. The paintings are cozy and capture a child's wonder at the variety of his world, but preschoolers may be frustrated by a thin story line and the random repetition of some numbers. Though this is not the most effective counting book, Alfie fans will welcome him back.
