Unwrapping Some Illustrations 

The Book

This sweet counting book will delight little ones and the colourful simple illustrations are perfect for the age group targeted.  Numbers from 1-10 are featured and enriched by sights and activities that take place after a rainfall.  

Featured in board book format "After It Rains: A Counting Book" is perfect for little hands to manoeuver and to read again and again.  Angela Doak's collage-style artwork, made with bits of recycled paper and foil wrappers, gives the illustrations interesting layers of colour and texture.  This would be a fun book to share and talk about all the things you can enjoy after it rains making the book interactive too! I highly recommend it.
