(2) K-3 Talking Math series. Danielson upends the traditional counting-book format by letting viewers decide for themselves what to count. Take, for example, a photograph of a pair of black lace-ups tucked into an open shoebox. Counting options include the shoebox, the shoes, the shoelaces. Then there are eyelets and aglets. The question "What other things can you count?" encourages viewers to keep looking closely. Danielson's open-ended approach will leave viewers lingering over the pages.
