Description
Bursting with colour, culture, and charm, Baby Goes to Market by Atinuke is a joyful counting story set in a bustling West African marketplace. As Mama shops, Baby secretly collects tasty treats from friendly market sellers — from six bananas to one final surprise — all without Mama noticing her basket getting heavier and heavier!
This delightful picture book blends early numeracy with rich storytelling, making it a perfect read-aloud for toddlers and preschoolers. The rhythmic, repetitive text supports language development, while the counting structure introduces early maths concepts in a playful, engaging way.
Illustrated in vibrant full colour, the market scenes are full of detail, encouraging observation skills and cultural awareness. Children will love spotting what Baby adds to the basket next, making this a fun and interactive reading experience.
A warm, funny, and educational story that celebrates food, family, and the joy of discovery — Baby Goes to Market is a must-have for every early years bookshelf.
