One North Star: A Counting Book

40 pp. | Minnesota | August, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-0-8166-5063-7 $16.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Beckie Prange & Betsy Bowen. This Minnesota nature–centered counting book begins with one moose that "browses by a cobble beach / by one great lake / under one north star." Each spread continues adding numbers but changes creatures and scenery, with tongue-twisting, poetic phrases extended by the striking woodcut and watercolor illustrations. Detailed back matter about the natural environments, animals, and plants common in the "North Star State" is included.
