Book Reviews of One Was Johnny: A Counting Book
Book Review: A Wacky Count Up to 10 and Down
Summary: 5 Stars
"One Was Johnny" is a simple counting book for young kids. It uses that favorite element that all kids enjoy -- animals -- in a fun story of events in a count up to 10, then down from 10. The animals keep coming into Johnny's house, doing some mundane, some nonsensical things; what should Johnny do? (There is a token human, a robber who does merely trivial harm.) Johnny's method to get rid of the intruders bears an interesting twist with respect to the song-rhyme "There Was an Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly." All the counting pages have amusing illustrations. Johnny achieves his solitude, but the kids may wonder why he did not want to be with all the great animals. They will still love the book.
