Cover of Zero Zebras: A Counting Book about What’s Not ThereZero Zebras: A Counting Book about What’s Not ThereBruce Goldstone, illustrated by Julien ChungThis animal-counting book asks whether something absent can be counted, including the number zero. Its safari moves through animals such as a wallaby, tuna, thrushes, and frogs, while zebras remain absent. The book contrasts what appears on the page with what does not, using hidden numerals within the illustrated scenes. As the animal groups change, the central question remains: how can counting account for zero zebras?Grades K–2On the same reading list for the same age or grade groupView book details

An unseen reader refuses to let the tale end so quickly and keeps adding pigs, demanding a longer and more inventive story. The resulting back-and-forth turns the familiar folktale setup into a counting story, with the wolf and reader pulling the narrative in different directions.Under FiveLexile Text Measure AD500LATOS Book Level 3.3On the same reading list for the same age or grade groupView book details
