Before you is a small masterpiece: this is a classic of children's literature and illustration - from Fyodor Rozhankovsky, he is the only Russian illustrator who received the Caldecott Medal for the best drawn book for children. There are many different animals in the book - owls, foxes, turtles, birds - children in every family play near their mother, and we count them from one to ten. The kids will count with you and learn a lot of interesting things about the habits of animals, their habitat, and the sounds they make. A wonderful little rhyme in verse that is easy to learn by heart. The animals are drawn with amazing subtlety, so it seems like this is a book from our childhood. Yes, Rozhankovsky is a Russian illustrator, but fate threw him into a foreign land during the revolution, and only now the books of the famous illustrator will return to their homeland. The book has a nice bonus - sheet music and lyrics in English!
