About this ebook
A hilarious and unexpected backward counting picture book from the author of Zebra and Yak: The Backwards Alphabet Book.
Counting books are supposed to go one, two, three, then a bunch of other numbers...
But this one starts with Twenty bottles of milk on the wall. It's an odd—actually, an even—way to kick things off. Zebra and Yak aren't sure what to think. And from bottles of milk, to runaway cows, to UFOs on the loose, things just get stranger from there.
The author of Zebra and Yak: The Backwards Alphabet Book returns with an irreverent take on counting, and the same hilarious characters are back for another unexpected adventure.
