Join Baby and his mama at the bustling marketplace for a bright, bouncy read-aloud offering a gentle introduction to numbers and counting.

When Baby and Mama go to market, baby is so adorable that the banana seller gives him six bananas. Baby eats one and puts five in the basket, but Mama doesn't notice. As Mama and Baby wend their way through the market stalls, cheeky Baby collects five juicy oranges, four sugary chin-chin biscuits, three roasted sweetcorn, two pieces of coconut ... until Mama notices that her basket is getting very heavy. Poor Baby, she thinks – he must be very hungry by now!

"A charming introduction to simple counting ... [with] rhythmic language and humour toddlers and pre-schoolers love." Independent

“Vividly evoked by the colourful illustrations of African-print fabrics and mouth-watering food. This delightful book is sure to appeal to mischievous babies and toddlers everywhere.” BookTrust
