Ten zany birds have a party in a tree, singing and dancing. Five have stripes, three have spots, and one has purple polka dots. They're all having fun, but one by one, they become distracted.
One is frightened by a loud plane. One gets hungry. One wants to race and another needs a bath. Only one stays to sing in the tree, but who will it be?
Ten Zany Birds is a fun, beautifully illustrated picture book. As parents and teachers read, children are introduced to counting and basic subtraction skills. Whenever a bird leaves, the number of striped, spotted, and polka-dotted birds changes, teaching the application of simple classification rules.
Whimsical and entertaining, Sherry Ellis's tale of ten silly, distractible little birds is an excellent choice for both prereader storybook time and early readers.

Zany Early Learner Basic Concepts Set to Bouncy Rhythm By Jewel Sample, award-winning author of Flying Hugs and Kisses I received a copy of this picture book by the author in exchange for an honest review.Sherry Ellis opens a singing and dancing bird story with lovely language, a sense of bouncy rhythm, and natural curiosity to participate in the repetition of two sentences throughout the book. Together the vivid whimsical watercolor illustrations and narration invites the reader to pay attention to counting backward, simple math skills of subtraction and addition; recognizing eleven different colors common to the early learner, while offering something a little more complex like comparing line and circle differences. It is not hard to wonder which color of bird will fly away.One page seemed confusing when a yellow-faced reddish-brown cat is labeled gray, yet opens discussion more about the illustrations than the words on the page.I found the book to be entertaining, as well as one that is fun to read from the back page for another story of counting frontwards and animal fun.TEN ZANY BIRDS is a great resource for the home or school library of children between the ages of four through eight.
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. Adorable and entertaining! By Deanie Humphrys-Dunne Sherry Ellis is a gifted children's author and her new book, "Ten Zany Birds" is more evidence of that. This time, children, parents, grandparents, and teachers will delight in the adorable rhymes and cute, colorful illustrations. The little birds party and dance along until various things happen to lure them off the branch where they're busy dancing and partying. It's a fun way to introduce small children to the concept of subtraction. I highly recommend it. Hats off to Ms. Ellis for another outstanding book.Review by children's author, Deanie Humphrys-Dunne

A Review By A Writer and Her Grandson By Nancy Julien Kopp MONDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2015Ten Zany Birds--A Review25605484 Thanksgiving has come and gone and November is about to slam the door. On the final day of this eleventh month, I'd like to do a book review.Georgia author, Sherry Ellis, has self-published Ten Zany Birds, a rhyming picture book which the author describes as "a feathered festival." The story itself is an old concept--begin with ten and one by one, the zany birds fly away leaving only one in the end. As a child, I remember a rhyming book about ten little Indians--sure to be labeled politically incorrect in present times. My children learned a rhyming jingle about ten little monkeys jumping on a bed. One fell off....you get the picture.Sherry Ellis has brought the old concept up to date while introducing counting and basic subtraction skills. Colors and patterns (stripes, spotted, and polka-dotted) also come into play in this picture book. Humor and whimsy float from page to page as the silly and easily distracted birds fly away, one by one.The book would be fun for parent, grandparent or teacher to read to a pre-school child. Early readers would delight in the rhyming and fun throughout this book. as well as the illustrations.Charu Jain, an artist who lives in India, illustrated the book. Her interpretation of the zany birds adds much to the author's story. The vibrant colors and whimsical expressions on the birds creates more joy when reading this book.Being a writer myself and a word person, I would have loved to see some explanation of the key word in the title--zany. It's definitely not a word most pre-schoolers are acquainted with. Perhaps the story itself transfers the meaning of the word to the children. But this is a counting and basic subtraction concept book so perhaps I ask too much. I would love to know how Ms Ellis picked the word zany to include in the title and repeated rhyme within the book itself.I asked my nine-year-old grandson to read the book when he was here on Thanksgiving Day. I told him it was for children much younger than he is but that I'd like his opinion to help me review the book. Cole read the book and then sat down at the computer to write his review. I've listed the things he liked below with my additions in red:It shows what they (birds) look like.I like when they fly awayThey are all different colorsThe birds look funnyThe birds always look like they are having funI like the last pageIt was a good bookHe did say he didn't like that it said the same thing on almost every page. We talked about the importance of using repetition when young children are learning to read and that children his age didn't need to have that repeating process anymore.I think I agree with my grandson. It was a good book. Gift-giving time is looming close. If you have little ones on your list, consider Ten Zany Birds by Sherry Ellis.
