One to Ten. . . and Back Again -- This is as easy as 1 . . . 2 . . . 3! Or . . . 3 . . . 2 . . . 1!

Grasp the convenient built-in handles, and open the covers. A ribbon appears with a bright little bee printed on it: AMAZING. With a turn of the page, a second ribbon with two pretty little butterflies appears AMAZING!. And so on up to 10. Think you are finished? Turn the book upside down and count back to one.

A deceptively simple silk ribbon action, dazzling printing, crisp design, and a mesmerizing page-turning sequence adds up to—well, far more than a ten! AMAZING!
