Ocean Counting: Odd Numbers

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Shennen Bersani. Counting from one to forty-nine by odd numbers, this book offers brief information about various marine animals, including basking sharks, limpets, lumpfish, and horseshoe crabs. The text is mostly factual but occasionally forced ("Yay! Thirty-three!"). Counting the creatures in the realistic illustrations--as the text invites readers to do--isn't always easy, but the arithmetic theme is secondary.
