|summary=An unusual story that's chock-full of animals! It's worth borrowing to try it out, then see if you need your own copy at home!
}}
The illustrations are nicely done, nothing fancy but real enough animals that they are recognisable and not overly cartoon-ish. I found it interesting in that it uses quite large numbers, and counts down rather than up. I also liked the huge range of animals included. But, for me, the story was a little bit too thin on the ground. Try it out from the library first, and then if your child goes crazy for it, grab yourself a copy to keep!
For more basic counting and animals try [[The Selfish Crocodile Counting Book by Faustin Charles and Michael Terry]] or you might also enjoy [[What can you Stack on the Back of a Yak? by Alison Green and Adam Stower]]and [[Sparky! by Jenny Offill and Chris Appelhans]].
