- The Number Story 3 and 4 is a very clever little book – two books in fact – that work very hard to help young children to understand numbers.
- Most counting books count balls and boots etc. But not this book. In this book, for the Number 13, the reader will be told that boys will often celebrate a ‘Coming of Age’ party. Oh, the originality!
- There are no boring balls and boots.
- In Number Story 4, numbers help to decide who was 3rd in a camel race in Oman, or was 2nd in an Ostrich Derby in South Africa. Fantastic stuff!
Blast off with number Eleven!
Greet Good Afternoon with number Twelve!
And celebrate a special birthday with number Thirteen!
The Numbers have done it again! Now there is something more than number charts! Number charts are useful, yes, to teach children the numbers that are beyond ten. But the Numbers did sense that little John found that rather uninspiring, colorless boring, not to mention dull. How about a story? The Numbers came up with not just one but several memorable stories to cheerfully introduce the greater family of Eleven to Twenty. With more warm and enchanting pictures to delight little eyes, with the warmth of poetry and rhymes, Numbers are happy to present Eleven to Twenty in their family tree. What could be the stories that made little John smile all the while learning numbers eleven to twenty?
Miss Anna is happy to unveil her next book – Number Story 3 and 4, the second sequel in The Number Story series. Children will be enthralled and enraptured by the stories and pictures found within as they are introduced to more numbers and, in The Number Story 4, as they travel on an airship to attend exciting and REAL games across the seven continents all the while learn about the ordinal number names. The pleasant stories, the exciting airship adventures, the warm and cozy pictures, and the friendly and fun spirit of the Numbers will leave a twinkle in the eyes of a child. If you like charming numbers with a joyful flair, if you like stories that teach as well as entertain, then you will like the nuggets of knowledge packaged and wrapped in child-friendly morsels in Miss Anna’s The Number Story 3 and 4. Buy the book to share with your child the tasty forkfuls within. Your child will be smiling as he/she learns numbers 11-20!
You and your children will also have a blast with Number Story 5 and 6!!

REVIEW
The Number Story 3 and 4 is a very clever little book – two
books in fact – that work very hard to help young children to
understand numbers.
In a mix of rhyme and prose, the author shows how important
numbers can be in helping the world to ‘work’. For example,
the Number 11 is illustrated by looking at the Apollo 11 moon
landing. It’s kept simple but will allow the parent/teacher to
discuss, say, space travel. The number of pawns in chess help
to illustrated the Number 16. Most counting books count balls
and boots etc. But not this book. In this book, for the Number
13, the reader will be told that boys will often celebrate a
‘Coming of Age’ party. This originality, I think, will very much
help the book to stand out in a bookshop full of counting
books.
In Book 4, the author looks at the way numbers helps us to
order things. But, just like in Book 3, there are no boring balls
and boots. In this book, numbers help to decide who was 3rd in
a camel race in Oman, or was 2nd in an Ostrich Derby in South
Africa. Fantastic stuff!
