The Chesapeake is a beautiful part of the country, with so much to offer and so much to learn about. There is fishing and wildlife, boats and beaches, and all of these things can be counted. With clever rhymes and bright cheerful illustrations, this is a clever twist on the traditional counting book. Best of all, at the end of the book the various elements of the Chesapeake Bay come together to form a wonderful collage of animals and people, boats and scenery. Can you find nine stingrays and eight blue crabs, or two ospreys and three sails? Here is a delightful book that not only helps one learn to count but which also shows how a place is made up of many different parts that all come together to make an environment. In the classroom the teacher could ask the class to come up with its own counting environment, for example a cityscape or a farm. 2002, Tidewater Publishers,— Marya Jansen-Gruber
