Ten on a Twig

Ten on a Twig features ten little birds sitting on a twig until... SNAP! Count along as they fall off one by one through the die-cut pages! Now available in board book format.

Count down from ten like never before with this uniquely beautiful interactive board book, perfect for fans of Eric Carle. Ideal for toddlers, preschoolers, and early readers who are learning numbers and counting, or for anyone looking for a great bedtime story.

In Ten on a Twig, ten birds sit on a twig, just passing time... One falls off, and then there are nine. As the pages turn in this interactive picture book, watch the birds fall, each taking a piece of the twig with them. In the end, they have a new home—just in time to say goodnight.

This charming and deceptively simple counting book is perfect for bedtime or playtime. The cleverly die-cut pages will delight young readers, especially those who love the format of A Very Hungry Caterpillar. Counting down introduces subtraction naturally, while varying page lengths mean the birds disappear off the twig with each turn of the page.

Children learning to count will be mesmerised by the actions as they turn the pages, enjoying repetition and re-reading, which will help them remember their numbers as they laugh along the way. Parents seeking Montessori-style toys for toddlers will appreciate this tactile and repetitive approach to learning, paired with simple, bold, and cute artwork suitable for any home. The sturdy pages are perfect for grabby little hands, making this a great next step up from board books for babies.
