Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
I Knew Two Who Said Moo
Judi Barrett · 2000
78/100
👍 Worth It
Judi Barrett's counting book is a clever, giggly package — rhyming every number word with a string of silly sounds and creatures is the kind of concept that makes kids want to read it again before the page is even turned. The vibrant digital illustrations match the playful energy, and engaging multiple early literacy skills at once is a real plus for caregivers.
