One fine morning, a rooster decided he wanted to travel.

In strikingly designed, colorful collage illustrations and a beguillingly simple text, Eric Carle takes his young readers on a trip with the rooster and his companions. As he travels, the rooster is joined by two cats, three frogs, four turtles and five fish, offering the child a graphic introduction to the meaning of numbers, number sets and addition within the context of an entertaining story.
