"Innovative, modern and incredibly fun. Rhyming board books are prevalent, but rollicking, fun ones are rarer."―Creators Syndicate

Derek and Kyle Sullivan are just your average set of monozygotic twins on a mission to conjure stories and characters that parents enjoy as much as their children. To get there, they never lose sight of their target audience: themselves as children. Derek is a Seattle-based illustrator and designer, while Kyle bides his time in Portland as a creative director and writer.

About this title

Review:

"Innovative, modern and incredibly fun. Rhyming board books are prevalent, but rollicking, fun ones are rarer." ―Creators Syndicate

"The subtitle says it all about this hilarious and energetic romp through numbers one to 10. A big-eyed, blue-skinned, and white-haired banshee stirs up trouble by shrieking, wailing, and howling a variety of greetings to her Irish countryside companions, which include dozing hobgoblins, cleaning bog monsters, and meditating druids. The artwork perfectly encapsulates the cartoonish antics and jolly spirit of the work. An inventive take on counting and the concept of quiet time for preschoolers―an easy pick for Halloween, too." ―Della Farrell, School Library Journal
