1 2 3 Count With Me ($12.95; Sept. 1, 1996; 24 pp.; 0-689-80828-3): From one to twenty, this bright, basic counting book puts forth a given number of items for each number, e.g., four ponies. Lifting a flap reveals related items of the same number: Four horse shoes show up one pony's saddle. The grand finale is twenty presents, each just a lift of the flap away from being ``unwrapped.'' Should the sturdy little doors and flaps fall off— as inevitably they will—the book still works. (Lift-the-flap. 2-4)
