One

Author: Kathryn Otoshi
Illustrator: Kathryn Otoshi

Comments:
This book not only reinforces colors and counting, but also deals with themes of bullying, peer pressure, teamwork, and friendship. Otoshi's main characters are watercolor blobs of blue, red, green, yellow, purple, orange, and the silver number one. But even these blobs express the emotion of the text as they change size and shape throughout the story.
