Dear Zoo Before and After Numbers
This resource is based on the picture book “Dear Zoo” by Rod Campbell. It features animal characters from the story. There are eight pairs of pages, each pair representing one of the animals mentioned in the story. The first page in each pair deals with numbers 1-10 and the second page deals with numbers 10-20.
