I have done a "My first counting book" with the numbers 1-10. The theme is an Ice cream parlour and it is made as a leporello since I think it was a nice way to present the scenery. The booklet needed some kind of package so I made a box as a cover and it was made to look like a kiosk.

    Thank you so much for teaching this course! I have seen your work over the years and to know the artist responsible for the lovely style and design of your creations for children is a gift and a surprise.
