Ten Nesting Swallows

<B>A counting book for the youngest reader that connects birds of the bible with relevant scripture quotes.</B><BR/><BR/><I>Ten Nesting Swallows</I> is a beautifully illustrated counting book that counts down from ten birds to one, beginning with ten nesting swallows and ending with one dove. Counting backwards is a challenge for toddlers, but doing so this way, with colorful images and help from an adult, offers a natural connection. The Bible quotes offer the youngest readers a spiritual connection and give the book an evergreen feel. The simple text and vibrant artwork keep it appropriate for preschool age children.<BR/><BR/> Praise for Tammar Stein's <I>Beni's War</I><P> "Stein masterfully weaves together the country’s rich cultural heritage and tenacity with the anxieties and sorrows of war. Using strong characters, striking landscapes, and accurate historic details, she provides a gripping glimpse of Israel in the 1970s. Readers will be motivated by Beni’s perceptiveness and inspired by the strength he demonstrates through acceptance―even towards the enemy." ― Rebecca Redinger, Lincoln Park Branch, Chicago P.L, <I>Library Journal</I> (Starred Review) </P><BR/>
