Tammy (BookHive (www.bookhive.org))
Dance and count along with this romping and rhyming book where toddlers jump, clap and spin off the page in simple bright illustrations. Counting from one to ten and then back again, ten small children and one cat hop across the pages as they do the "toddler two- step." A wonderful book to share with your active toddler who can imitate the movements while learning to count. Category: Concept; Novello; Read Aloud. Grade Level: Babies; Toddlers. 2000, HarperFestival. Ages 0 to 3.

Dia L. Michels (Children's Literature)
The Toddler Two-Step, a catchy poem of counting and moving, will lead your young child to reading and dancing. Created in consultation with early childhood experts, you and your child act out movements shown in the book, like hopping, jumping, tapping and seven more motions that correspond to your child's natural development. Each motion leads naturally to the next, and soon, you and your child will be dancing. Written in rhyme with bright, cheery illustrations, it's fun and easy to memorize the text and recite it. You can use this book to encourage your child to act out a movement or simply count the children on each page. Part of an award-winning program for children up to 3 years old, this book steps you into reading and walking together. 2000, Harper Collins, $9.95. Ages 18 mo. to 3.
