review 1: This was a Conor favorite, as are many of Jeffers' titles. It has characters that are fun to voice when reading aloud, a series of pages for counting fun objects up to 10, and of course the deep philosophical question: Is none a number? We had fun discussing what none means. The illustrations are typical Jeffers - simple and clean and expressive. Loved it. Will probably get this from the library again.
review 2: Lots of picture books explore counting one to ten, but not many tackle the concept of 'none'. Oliver Jeffers returns to his hilariously expressive Hueys to help explain. Along the way we count some rather unusual fare: The number of Kevin's daily tantrums, the number of seagulls after Frank's chips, and a rather splendid collection of chairs...Oliver... more Jeffers is an award-winning and best-selling author/illustrator. Every small person ought to spend a little time exploring his wonderful imagination. His illustrations are simple but captivating and gloriously expressive. If you are a fan already, then this offering will not disappoint. How many copies of Oliver's new book do you have in your hands right now? None? That's right! But luckily, that can be easily rectified. One more than none is one, and that is a good number of copies to start with.I award this book, with much enthusiasm, the same number of stars as Rupert has hats to choose from. Can you guess how many that is..? less
