There are many ways to count. We can count the clouds while lying in the grass; sitting next to a friend we can count the ants that crawl out of the anthill, we can count the poppies while walking through a field or we can tell a story as we count the characters that appear But, when we reach twelve, the moon comes out, we all have to go to bed, and the count-down begins! A story to be read out loud built upon the characters that enter and exit. A story with many possibilities and for multiple readings.
