Description
It’s a sunny day on the farm, but Dudley the dog is lonely as can be. What happens when some unexpected friends come along? You soon will see! Dudley finds there is beauty everywhere when you have others by your side. There is lots to see and count, so come along for the ride!
Lori Brown has been an educator for twelve years, and it is her love of teaching and writing that has given her the inspiration to create her memorable characters. She uses rhyme schemes to help children learn while enjoying the stories they are reading. She lives in McKenzie, Alabama with her husband, Miles.
The first book of The Dudley and Friends Series, Friends Count finds Dudley the dog all alone with his bone. When he meets a pair of cats, he abandons the bone for a day of fun and adventure with his new friends. The story is told in a series of rhyming couplets, with vibrant descriptions of all the animals and the world around them. Dudley learns that not only is it fun to count with friends, but he can count on them too. The story ends with Dudley anticipating the fact that school will be starting soon, which sets the stage for the next book about his first day at school.

This is a cute little rhyming book that teaches counting and friendship. The dedication brought me to tears and it was fun to look for the flowers.

What an adorable book that shows that anyone can be friends! My girls and I enjoyed this throughly. It has great messages, the illustrations are cute and the story kept them interested. I would definitely recommend this!

Friends do count and with this delightful book for toddlers, you can have fun reading about what it takes to be friend. Dog asks cat and together they ask other animal friends to join in. Not only will your child and you talk about the wonders of friendship, but also the wonders of counting. I always enjoy this aspect of reading with my kiddos.
A book to engage with your little ones and share the joy of reading.

I loved this story. It was a great story for kids to learn about different animals and seeing there were different amounts of each animal to practice counting. I would recommend this story for all kids. I also loved the illustrations as they were excellent but also had this rough around the edges look as well.

I thought that this was a nice story but a little basic for me and the images were cute.
For my daughter to want me to read it to her more than a few times it would need something more, whilst she is only two the story didn't captivate her as some books do and even though she enjoyed the counting parts of the story her attention sadly waned.
