Summary
Rabbit needs to one, two, buckle her shoe and three, four, run out the door so she can help her neighbor Mommy Hen prepare a yummy surprise for the little pigs' birthday party. Meanwhile, Mommy Hen's four little chickes are causing mischief. Can you count to 20 with Rabbit and keep track of those sneaky chicks at the same time?

Between the four little chicks hiding on every page and the creative story-telling approach to a popular counting rhyme, there is a lot to love about this delightful picture book. Combined with Jane Cabrera's signature eye-catching art style, learning to count has never been so much fun.

Jane Cabrera's Story Time celebrates children's best-loved read along nursery rhymes and songs. These interactive favorites are given a new twist by award-winning artist Jane Cabrera and feature her bold, bright, kid-friendly illustrations. Other titles in the series include Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush, If You're Happy and You Know It, and Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
Published Reviews
Booklist Review: "Cabrera continues her pitch-perfect pairing of rollicking nursery rhymes and cheery, painterly illustrations with this counting rhyme revamp featuring plenty of surprises, including four capering chicks that do their best to hide among the book's exuberant, candy-colored scenes. Double-page spreads illustrate each line of Cabrera's updated rhyme as Rabbit buckles her Mary Janes and hurries to help Mommy Hen collect treats from the garden ( 11, 12, dig and delve ) and prepare a feast for a hungry group of piglets ( 17, 18, all a-waiting ). But as the book's cover indicates, this is no ordinary meal; there's a celebration in store. Rabbit and Mommy Hen have been busily preparing a surprise birthday party for the piglets and an even more surprising birthday cake. Full of number fun and Cabrera's friendly, wide-eyed animal characters, this title is well suited for a rousing group read-aloud or a leisurely lapsit.--McKulski, Kristen Copyright 2009 Booklist"

Publisher's Weekly Review: "Cabrera's (Old MacDonald Had a Farm) version of this familiar schoolyard song takes readers all the way up through the number 20, as her rabbit heroine helps some animals get ready for a big party. Though the rhymes are occasionally a stretch ("15, 16, in the kitchen"), the lively images, thick with paint strokes, create a cheerful atmosphere. Additionally, the opening challenge to find four small chicks on each spread will keep readers entertained as they read along. Ages 2-5. (Sept.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved"
