Overview
These bagel-shaped books look good enough to eat-but you better not try, because they are better read than eaten! Using a familiar and favorite food of toddlers and adults alike, these yummy board books with clear, simple text teach early-learning concepts-colors and counting-in a fresh, fun way. Young children will love looking at the delicious rainbow of bright bagel photographs in There's No Blue on a Bagel, and the variety of bagels in I'll Take a Dozen! makes counting more fun than ever.

Children's Literature
There are many books that teach kids to recognize colors. This board book has a hole in the middle and each page is filled with a bagel. The bagels are covered with foods and spreads that kids will recognize and a color is associated with each—red tomato, white cream cheese, orange marmalade and even a brown toasted bagel. The whole premise is that there is no blue on a bagel. There could be if the author had chosen to spread some blueberry jam, but that is beside the point. However, it may get kids asking why isn't there anything blue to put on a bagel, so parents and caregivers—prepare to have some answers ready. 2002, Grosset & Dunlop/Penguin Putnam,— Marilyn Courtot
