One Is a Snail, Ten Is a Crab: A Counting by Feet book that makes learning to count fun for 3-5 year olds

Great teacher buy for early years number work. I use with numicon shapes and print out the different animals to go with them. Works well for small group interventions.

I teach reception and we use this at school (also in Year 1) the kids love it and it inspires them to really get their teeth into some tricky maths in a really fun way. Great for addition and subtraction and number bonds, as well as independent problem solving. If I could give this more stars I would.

I would really recommend this book for KS1 teachers. It provides many opportunities for problem solving, making target amounts using the animal feet, and also provides an introduction for multiplication. As a mum as well, my children also enjoy it as a bed time read!

Great maths book. Great way of looking at ‘one more’ but also talking simply about a snail having one foot! It’s been perfect for my nursery class, but can imagine being great for reception, and year one also, with its use of counting in 10s, and simple addition.

I used this book when I was being observed in my classroom. I super book with a clever idea. Good for introducing number calculations. I'm a teacher in reception class and used this for all abilities in the class.

It's very popular and subtly teaches counting in groups of 10 etc. My daughter enjoys it and asks for it to be read to her frequently.

Great for teaching children how numbers can be made in different ways. I would recommend for reception teachers.

Am SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO delighted with this book. Please can someone translate it into Pashto and / or Arabic also? Beautifully illustrated in full colour, child- friendly, an absolute joy to read to / with young children. A book that teaches ANd entertains. An absolute pleasure. Buy this book!
