Not my cup of tea. The story does not progress enough for my taste and the pages highlighting famous mathematicians and museum websites to visit felt totally geared towards adults. The collage art style feels tired because so many marketing campaigns have utilized it in the past to sell to "hipsters". I actually almost didn't finish it.

This is a fair translation (original Ukrainian might be less awkward) with chic, unique artwork and professional design.
A book that conceptually resonates with children at the peak of counting stage.

Look at this celebration of numbers! The artwork is gorgeous! Flora loves to count and that love starts with the everyday things around her, extending to the impossibility of counting the stars. Whether counting everything you see can be done, loving numbers and math can!

In May, I wanted to read a book from Ukraine but the only one I could find at my library was this kids book. I added myself to the hold list, and it only just became available. A book about numbers and counting, it’s illustrated beautifully with puzzles and filled with facts. A great read for any kid who likes numbers.

A nice book about counting. Would be good to read to younger children when they are learning about counting in maths. The book has a nice message that you can achieve anything if you take it small steps at a time. The illustrations are very different and interesting to explore. The end of the story has lots of interesting facts relating to numbers and then more about famous mathematicians. This could help to inspire children to be interested in maths.
