One Child, One Seed: A South African Counting Book

32 pp. | Holt | April, 2003 | Trade ISBN 0-8050-7204-7 $$16.95
(3) K-3 Photographs by Gisèle Wulfsohn. This photo-essay set in South Africa contains a traditional counting theme ("One child, one seed...Two hands to plant the seed") in the context of a (somewhat digressive) description of a family's farm. Clear color photos in an open, attractive design range from decorative to informative; the book ends with a map showing South Africa and a recipe for a pumpkin-and-cornmeal dish.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
