The Long-Nosed Pig

In this innovative counting book, die-cut circular windows create a magical effect as Toby the Turtle’s balloons “disappear” one by one, popped by pesky birds. Even when Toby picks up the pace with in-line skates, a motorcycle, and other speedy modes of transportation, he just can’t outrace the birds’ pointy beaks. Extra-shiny balloons on the cover, artwork featuring appealing characters and fun vehicles, and the irresistible peek-through holes all add up to an entertaining introduction to subtraction.
