Synopsis & About the Author

Product Description Turn each graduated page of this sturdy board book to find a big, bold, die-cut number from one to ten - and a madcap chase that ends with a silly surprise. Start the count! Little listeners will clamor to call out the numbers as one little chick is followed by a rooster, then a cat, a dog, a ram, and a rowdy crew of animals of increasing size. But flip the final page, and a clever mouse with a bullhorn manages to scare them all back where they came from! From Publishers Weekly A cumulative wordless tale of an animal chase builds in 123 Follow Me! by Philippe Dupasquier. Cleverly constructed, one chick (featured with the numeral and word "one") is chased by a hen (for "two"), who are followed by a cat ("three") and so on, in overlapping number-shaped pages that grow progressively longer with the addition of each new animal, up to 10 (and a surprise ending).

The creator of several wordless picture books for children, Philippe Dupasquier is an author-illustrator who believes that children’s books should sometimes be "just picture books."
