Review quotes

"This deceptively straightforward book introduces youngsters to addition
in such an unobtrusive, organic and merry way that they may not even notice
how much they're learning. "—Publishers Weekly

"Wonderfully handled . . . harmoniously reinforcing the beauty of
numbers themselves."—Chicago Tribune

"A delightful book offering loads of fun with the number seven. . . . This charmer
should have little ones figuring out the basic concept of addition in no time."—Booklist
