Touch and Feel: 1, 2, 3 is another book in our house that is a huge hit.  Any cardboard books that make it through two kids definitely get a thumbs up from me.  This book teaches both counting and different textures to your kids.  Though out of all textures, I have to say that the ten sticky cherries has to be the favorite texture for both my kids.  You can also feel the texture of rough sandcastle and a snake too (sorry, no nice and soft baby bedding)!  If you you need a great book for a little boy or girl, this is one you should get!
