Book Descriptions
for Cock-A-Doodle-Doo by Steve Lavis
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
There are a lot of animals to count in the barnyard, beginning with "one noisy rooster waking up the farm"and ending with "ten clucking chickens roosting in the barn. " Each double-page spread features a clearly illustrated group of countable animals, accompanied throughout by the mooing, oinking, baa-ing, and neighing noises that are so appealing to toddlers. (Ages 1-3)

From the Publisher
A counting and identify-the-animals-and-their-sounds book in sturdy borad book format. One by one (and two, three, four all the way to ten ) the animals on the farm wake up to the rooster's crow. Horses must be fed, cows must be milked, ducks must go off for a swim. Loudly and happily, the farm swings into a day of boisterous busyness, punctuacted by clucks and moos and neighs. Youngsters will love counting and indentifying the animals, imitating their sounds, an playing hunt and find as they locate the little mouse that travels from page to page. Never before have the myriad activities of a barnyard been duplicated with such rollicking good humor
