About The Book

Ten adorable animals take cover from a storm in this Classic Board Book edition of Nancy Tafuri’s counting book.

Dark clouds started to gather. Bird flew for cover. Now there was 1 in the hill hollow.
The wind started to blow. Mouse ran for cover. Now there were 2 in the hill hollow.

As clouds amass overhead and rain starts to pour, ten little woodland animals hurry to find shelter. Count from one to ten as Bird, Mouse, Squirrel, and their friends run for cover in a cozy hollow. The animals are all safe for the night, but who else is hiding in the cave with them? They’ll find out in the morning—and readers can count from ten to one as the animals scurry out of the hollow and into a big, beautiful day.

This Classic Board Book edition is a hands-on favorite for even the youngest of readers!
