Children love stories about family, animals, and other creatures, especially when they can learn things at the same time. Linda Asato tells the tale of a little girl who checks the mail every day – allowing children to learn the days of the week, and sees a spider in the mailbox (number one). The second day, she sees two crows (number two). Each day the types and number of creatures changes, but the spider remains. Each day, the girl runs to tell her busy mother what she saw.
Lessons to learn are counting to seven and the days of the week, learned in a fun way.
Ryan Shaw brings Asato’s delightful story to life with his bright illustrations.

Awesome, entertaining, and educational book for kids! May 19, 2009
By Earnest Entrepreneur
One of the best kids books I've seen! Fun, entertaining, educational, and the illustrations are fabulous - bright and cheery. Our 6 year old son couldn't put it down, and seemed to enjoy it as much as one of his childrens videos - it made him laugh, ask questions, and count all of the critters in the story. Clever story line. Bravo to the author! I foresee many more great books coming from Linda Asato. Add this one to your kid’s library!
Please check out Linda’s book. I feel certain you must know a child that it would be ideal for as a gift!
Cheers!
