Author: Sara Anderson
9-3/4 x 6 inches
board book
22 pages

Dazzling in its simplicity, exuberant in its palette, Sara Anderson‘s landmark board book still bursts with a freshness and energy twenty years after it was first published.

It‘s unique graduated page design encourages the youngest child to discover the joy of counting, to see the pages grow in size as the numbers increase. Numbers shows a clarity and assurance perhaps reminiscent of the most jubilant of Matisse‘s cut paper collage. This is a book which is entirely in its element in a museum shop, but is most at home on the floor or a lap, being paged through, over and over, by young toddlers.
