Counting Sheep

(4) K-3 Step into Reading + Math series. Illustrated by Mike Wohnoutka. Unable to fall asleep, a child counts sheep and other animals by ones, twos, threes, fours, and fives. Then he counts backward by the same numbers, and by the end he's asleep. Watercolor illustrations depict friendly animals dancing around the wide-awake boy. Although this early reader features a large typeface and a very brief rhymed text, the reverse counting concept may be too ambitious for some.
