What is Ten Apples Up on Top about?

A dog, a lion and a tiger discover that balancing one apple on their heads is easy—but can they reach ten? As they race, dance, skate and tumble, the animals keep adding apples while trying not to lose their wobbly towers. Told in lively rhyming verses with plenty of repetition, this playful counting story invites children to join in from one to ten. Their silly competition becomes increasingly chaotic, leading to a cheerful and satisfying finish.
