This book starts as a clever twist on the "this little piggie.." childrens rhyme and turns into a fun counting book with a humorous ending.
This is a book that both kids and adults can enjoy. The illustrations are great as well and they contain some fun surprises for especially observant children.
Lyra's Oxford opens in the thrilling comfort and familiarity of Jordan College, where
Lyra and her daemon Pantalaimon sit on the sun-drenched roof looking
out over all of Oxford. But their peace is shattered when a strange
bird-a witch's daemon, on its own-tumbles out of the sky. It is Ragi,
daemon of Yelena Pazhets, and he seeks a healing elixir from an
infamous Oxford alchemist (and rumored man slaughterer) to cure his
witch of a strange new disease from the South. Lyra and Pan decide to
help and guide him-witches are friends, of course-but the closer their
winding walk leads them to the alchemist's house, the stronger Lyra's
sense that she's walking into a deadly trap.
