(3) PS Jaunty rhyming couplets describe the actions of seven ducklings and the different ways to count to seven: "Slipping, sliding, having fun / 7 ducklings, 6 plus 1." Baker cleverly uses double-page spreads to demonstrate the concept of addition, featuring one group of ducklings on the left-hand page, the sum-completing remainder on the right. Playful, textured cut-paper illustrations seem to fly off the pages.
