desertcart.com: Alphaprints: 123: 9780312517366: Priddy, Roger: Books Review: The Best Books! - I have a 10 month old, and this is the second fingerprint book I’ve purchased. They are well made and just so creatively cute! The caterpillars for number four are made out of macarons, and it is the best thing I’ve ever seen! I love reading these books to my daughter, and she loves looking at them! Highly recommend! Review: which is nice, completely unexpected from the price I paid - When I ordered this, I was unaware of the reason it's called Alpha"prints". All the animals featured in the book are made using a finger print. Each finger print is textured and my 2.5 year old son really enjoys running his fingers over them. It's a LARGE book, which is nice, completely unexpected from the price I paid. Turns out there are other books in the series. I think it's very cute and imaginative that they not only use fingerprints, but also other everyday objects to create the animals. If you look on the cover you'll notice the birds beaks are actually leaves and they're perched on a watermelon. Turtle shells are actually bowls and other such things. It's really cute and I would highly recommend.

The Best Books!
I have a 10 month old, and this is the second fingerprint book I’ve purchased. They are well made and just so creatively cute! The caterpillars for number four are made out of macarons, and it is the best thing I’ve ever seen! I love reading these books to my daughter, and she loves looking at them! Highly recommend!

We learned to count from this book
We love this board book so much that I bought this latest copy as a gift for a baby nephew. It’s sturdy and has engaging pictures, and helped both my kids learn to count as toddlers. My daughter who is 4 still enjoys reading it before bed. One of the best kids books I’ve purchased over the years!

Great book!
I love this series, and this is a great book! It counts up to ten, and each page has the corresponding number of a certain animal with two descriptive sentences. I love how creative this series is in using fingerprints and everyday objects to make the animals. We also have the Alphaprints: ABC book. I was pleased to discover that there is only one duplicate animal between the two books. If you already have the ABC book, I would still recommend this one!

Sturdy and colorful
Our 2 and 1 year old both love this book. Our 2 year old is learning to count and this is his top book he pulls out to read. Brightly colored and thicker pages which makes is great with how rough kids are.

I bought this for my 16 month old daughter after being impressed with the Alphaprints ABC book. We love the bright colours (made even more bold as the images are set against a white background) and we love that each animal uses a textured fingerprint as its base and is then decorated with food, leaves, and other objects (see picture attached). The book counts up from 1 to 10 and the accompanying descriptions are short and snappy so they remain engaging. I also bought the Colours book at the same time and it’s just as beautifully and imaginatively illustrated.

My kid just loves this book. The rhythm and rhyme is good. I swear I read it to him at least 10 times a day so this is how we count to ten as I have memorised it.

Excellent book- my 18 month old loves it. Brightly coloured pictures, lots of things to count on each page. Great texture made from the fingerprints. Love this series of books.
