Ten hungry creatures are shown in sequence holding pieces of fruit. The cheery, odd monsters are softly hued, and the fruit is depicted realistically, showing seeds, colors, and textures. Overall the text is a bit of a letdown ("We are hungry!" and "What fun!" are the only non-counting-related words), but the visually striking presentation will capture readers' imaginations.
