About this item

A playful countdown turns into a cozy goodnight. A story kids don't just read―they experience! Ten on a twig, just passing time… One falls off, and then there are nine. As each bird topples off the twig―taking a piece of it with them―young readers embark on a joyful journey of subtraction, prediction, and discovery. The pages themselves tell the story as they literally shrink with each turn until the birds find their way to a cozy new home by the end. Ten on a Twig combines bold, graphic illustrations with clever die-cut pages that make learning tactile and visually dynamic. More than just a counting book, this is a sensory-rich reading experience that engages minds and hands alike. Encouraging repetition and rereads, this book is sure to help many kids remember their numbers as they laugh along the way. Counting down introduces the concept of subtraction in a natural way, and the varying lengths of the pages means the birds disappear off the twig as you turn the page. For fans of Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar, this is a fresh and modern companion that adds math, movement, and a comforting bedtime wrap-up. Perfect for: Parents seeking Montessori-aligned picture books that encourage exploration and self-led learning Educators and librarians looking for interactive stories that teach math through storytelling Gift-givers wanting a visually striking, keepsake-quality read for birthdays or baby showers
