‘Seaside Countdown’ is a bright and engaging fully illustrated book that will take young readers on a seaside adventure as well as support their learning as they count the various items and animals along the way. Counting down from 10, each double page spread has different aquatic creatures to spot and count, with plenty of other animals to look at and talk about as you move through the pages. The text is clear and the rhyming is easy to follow or tackle for more confident readers. At the end of the book there’s fact sheets, featuring the animals from the book, but with high quality photographs replacing the illustrations. I like the addition of these facts, as it elevates the book a bit further from a counting book to one that can be enjoyed again before a trip to the seaside. ‘Seaside Countdown’ is a brilliant dual-purpose book perfect for animal and sea-loving young readers.
