With over 50 flaps to lift, this delightful book helps young children learn how to add and take away numbers from zero to ten. Pages show scenes such as a garden, a beach, a bakery and a market with simple arithmetic questions. Children can do the sums then lift up a leaf, a sandcastle or a tray of tasty jam tarts to reveal the answers.
Felicity has worked for Usborne for over 30 years and has written and edited hundreds of titles, from books on tractors to genetics, from Shakespeare to mental health, and plenty of sparkly unicorns. Felicity is an expert in making tricky topics friendly and accessible to young children and recently has been writing books that celebrate feelings, friendship, empathy, families, and diversity. When she's not writing or researching very specific details on dinosaurs, Felicity can be found tramping through fields and forests foraging for food or just curled up with a bag of Twiglets, a couple of cats and a crossword.
