One, Two, Three, Going to Sea Reviews
-
I had a ton of children’s books that I kept on my shelf for many, many years and yet, I was never able to get around to reading those books, despite the fact that I had those books since I was a toddler! “One, Two, Three Going to Sea” by Alain was one of those children’s books that was on my shelf for years and I did not read, until now!
The story starts off with several fisherman going out fishing in the sea. As the story progresses, more fisherman was added to the cast, which eventually led to nine fishermen meeting up with one more fisherman and then…
What happens next?
Read this book to find out!
Wow! I just loved the way that Alain wrote this book as this story was full of humor and creativity! I just loved the way that Alain helps children learn how to count to ten by counting out the number of fishermen going to sea, while also presenting the concept of adding and subtracting numbers by using the fishermen each time one of them joins or leaves the party. Alain’s artwork was also a treat to look at as the artwork was done in a simplistic yet cute style that really made these characters come to life in a unique way. I also loved the fact that the artwork is mostly shown in blue, white and black colors as it makes the artwork look even more creative!
Overall, “One, Two, Three Going to Sea” is a truly fantastic read for children who want to learn about counting and who enjoy reading books that deal with the sea! I would recommend this book to children ages three and up since there is nothing inappropriate in this book.

Well illustrated, super cute, slightly (but only slightly) distressing

It's a great book for kindergarten child that is learning. A friend gave this to my grandson to help him read and do math. I would recommend this book.

Somewhere near the 1st grade I wrote this about it:
9 fishermen meet 1 fisherman. So they go out to sea together and their boat sinks.
