General Note
SAMPLE TEXT: One morning a rooster set out to see the world. He had not gone far when he began to feel lonely. Then the rooser met two cats. Come with me to see the world, said the rooster. We would love to, said the cats. So they set off down the road. Then the rooser and the cats met three frogs. Would you like to see the world? asked the rooster. Why not? said the frogs. We are not busy now. So the frogs followed the rooster and the cats. Then the rooster, the cats, and the frogs met four turtles. Would you like to see the world? asked the rooster. It might be fun, snapped one of the turtles. So they all set off to see the world.
Description
A simple introduction to the meaning of numbers and sets as a rooster, on his way to see the world, is joined by fourteen animals along the way.

Horn Book Review

Previously published as picture books, these beginning readers contain "slightly different text[s]." To make a pancake, Jack must cut wheat, grind grain, gather an egg, and so on. Rooster's journey to see the world is cut short when his traveling companions bail on him. Carle's striking illustrations and the approachable (though dull) texts will encourage new readers.
