Over in the meadow there's a spring wedding, with the couple's 10 best friends to celebrate. What's next? - A house!
- 9 diggers,
- 8 masons,
- 7 carpenters,
- 6 well diggers,
- 5 roofers,
- 4 plumbers,
- 3 electricians,
- 2 painters, and
- 1 inspector
show up with all their trucks and tools to build a new house. And when the couple and their friends have a house-warming party, a new baby comes, too!
Inspired by Olive A. Wadsworth's old counting poem, Shutta Crum's exhuberant rhyme celebrates the fun of counting, the excitement of building a house, and the satisfaction of sharing work.
