Where Are My Chicks? - Tapa dura

An absent minded mother hen can't find her chicks! She searches everywhere, and with the help of the other farm animals finally tracks the naughty chicks down - but why does she have more than she started with? A perfect introduction to counting, with clear simple text, lots of animals to identify and a fun twist at the end.
