Babar continues to be one of the best-loved children`s book characters ever created, selling millions of copies worldwide. Beginning in Spring 2012, Abrams will start reissuing Laurent de Brunhoffs classic Babar stories in handsome 3 piece case editions. Parents, grandparents and teachers alike can now introduce Babar and his kingdom to a whole new generation! Learn to count from 1 to 20 with the King of the Elephants! Babar, the adored, best-selling elephant king, is back and he`s ready to help young readers master counting from 1 to 20. Ever the good father (and the good teacher), he lets his children, Porn, Flora and Alexander, master 1 to 1 0 on their own. During a walk with Zephir the monkey, they spy one marabou bird, two hot-air balloons in the sky, three race cars...Then Babar personally teaches his children and his young readers to count to 20. At the end of the book, there is a special reward; a Royal certificate that affirms the new skill: ”I, Babar, King of the Bephants, do herby proclaim that you have learned to count to 20.” Babar`s Counting book, first published in 1986, continues to delight youngsters and to show them that numbers are all around them.
