This book deserves a place on the bookshelf in the home, daycare, preschool, library, or classroom. Not only does it provide educational content with the sequential counting, but it also delivers a delightful slice of regional content. - Canadian Review of Materials Asnong gives the book a sense of whimsy by including such elements as scuba diving cats, sunglass-wearing seals, and surfboard-riding starfish, to name just a few. These embedded aspects will keep the kids looking at each page with a sharp eye. - Canadian Review of Materials West Coast 123s is a clever concept book which uses locations from around coastal British Columbia to explore sequential counting from 1-20.

Author Information
Jocey Asnong was raised by a pack of wild pencil crayons in a house made out of paper and stories. After finishing several years of illustration school at Sheridan College, she left the land of maple trees in Ontario and moved to the mountains of Alberta so she could wear mittens most of the year. When she is not chasing her cats around her art cave, she might be caught in a blizzard near Mount Everest, or running away from wild dogs in Mongolia, or peeking out castle windows in Scotland, or sleeping under the stars in Bolivia. Jocey’s books for children include Nuptse and Lhotse in Nepal (winner of a Purple Dragonfly Award), Nuptse and Lhotse Go to the Rockies, Nuptse and Lhotse Go to Iceland, Nuptse and Lhotse Go to the West Coast, Nuptse and Lhotse in the Land of the Midnight Sun, Nuptse and Lhotse Go to the Prairies, Nuptse and Lhotse in the Land of the Great Lakes, Explore Canada, Rocky Mountain ABCs, Rocky Mountain 123s, West Coast ABCs, West Coast 123s, Prairie ABCs, Prairie 123s, and Ontario ABCs. She now makes her home in Belfast, PEI.
