"More than an effective counting book . . . this is the book your 'funnest' babysitter reads to you!"-Marcey Walsh, national math/science children's performance artist, Highly Contagious EducationBeware of beasts with epic appetites! As a band of eight knights trek to their castle with Glubbery Gray, the Knight-Eating Beast, in tow, little do they realize that their captive has a taste for gallant gentlemen. It's not long before the knights begin to disappear, one by one, and the countdown begins.Hilarious, wacky, and a little bit ridiculous, this counting book with a twist features fanciful and vibrant cartoon illustrations, wickedly clever rhyming couplets, a snowball fight, a nap, a bath, a baker, a dragon on stilts, a pretty girl in a lake, eight entertaining knights, and one unforgettable beast.ABOUT THE AUTHORSAn award-winning writer and playwright, Beth Kander is the community outreach director for Mad Genius, Inc., a creative agency.
