Round 1: (6) Out and About vs. (11) Farm Numbers

Well, somebody's got to win this one.


Out and About
by An International Person of Mystery

Out and About is another from the set of UK books H. was given. It's another textured book featuring lots of nature words. Much like Count To Five before it, this was a big hit with H. when he was little. Unfortunately, I can't find anything about it online, so if you wanted to buy it, well, sorry.

Farm Numbers
by Emma Surry
Available in board book format. (Amazon)

Yet another finger puppet book, Farm Numbers follows a little duckling around while counting barnyard animals and produce. It's pretty self explanatory. It does do itself a grievous disservice in having the duckling count ducks in a pond - in which the duckling is sitting - and yet not include the duckling in the number of ducks to be counted. Points against, in my opinion. Good thing for Farm Numbers, it's not my opinion that matters.

Match-up Analysis

This seems like a boring match up. Frankly, it kind of is. Neither of these come up much right now, so it's really a complete toss up as to what H. will pick here.

Prediction

I flipped a coin and got Farm Animals.

Results

Farm Animals takes the W.

Up Next

Farm Animals will fight it out with First 100 Trucks on April 15th.
