So grateful to @amyalznauer
for making space and saying kind words about that old one!

I have been reading the Sunday Book Review for **YEARS** looking for mention of children's books about any math topic at all. -
YEARS, friends!

Like 8 to 10 maybe? I might have missed a few weeks due to vacations or snowstorms or whatever, but otherwise every week looking at the children's books section.
Nothing. -
So you can imagine my delight when Amy got in touch a few weeks back to let me know that not only was she doing a roundup of counting books for them, she was working to get How Many? included.

So I am just here to express my delight that counting—a favorite activity of young minds—is finally getting some love.

And to express my gratitude for How Many? being in the mix. -
Next up is shapes, @nytimesbooks? Or maybe patterns?
