Monsters Play… Counting! by Flavia Z. Drago

Get ready to count like a monster!

In Monsters Play… Counting!, young readers are invited to count from 1 to 10 alongside ten colourful and quirky monsters. Meet Simone with one long tongue, discover monsters with two ears, three eyes, and many more surprising body parts along the way!

Created by Flavia Z. Drago, the illustrator behind Gustavo, the Shy Ghost, this lively picture book combines rhyming text, bold illustrations and playful monsters to introduce early counting skills in a fun and engaging way. As children count, they also learn the names of different body parts, encouraging movement, curiosity and early vocabulary development.

Bright, energetic and full of personality, this joyful book makes early learning feel like play.
