Spooky Sums and Counting Horrors

Illustrated by Rebecca Cobb

 
Welcome to the House of Counting Horrors!

There's no need to be afraid, it's not as spooky here as you think. Little ghosts like learning how to count and add up. Especially when it's fun party things that we are counting!

Ghosts love midnight feasts. Can you help with the preparations? How many mousehead biscuits can you spot?

One, two, three, four
Faster, faster count once more
Much the mousehead biscuits here
Quick before they disappear!
