About the Book

“Introducing numbers at an early age has been one of the most important tasks for me as a parent. I want to set my two year old up with a great start in math and this book has been a fun way to learn to count! My kiddos love beautiful illustrations and rhyming in every story—this book piques his interest and keeps him engaged!”

Once a bear sat on a chair. He is soon joined by a furry friend and then, one by one, other playmates follow. Each bear claims a chair as they wait with eager anticipation for what happens next in this sweet counting story. 

With dynamic rhymes and lively illustrations, this board book offers an engaging premise for young readers to practice their counting and get to know a group of eclectic bear friends. From Ron Atlas, the author of Looking for Zebra and Ten Pigs Fiddling, this timeless book will become a staple in any household with children.
