Un, deux, trois. Un, deux, trois.
Pourquoi ne jouez-vous pas avec moi?

Personne ne la remarque, pas m?me Mme Orbe, l'enseignante. Brindille est si timide qu'elle se fond dans le paysage. Finalement, elle trouve le courage de parler. Mme Orbe et tous les ?l?ves se mobilisent pour tisser une magnifique ?charpe color?e qu'ils offrent ? Brindille afin qu'on puisse la voir. D?sormais, elle ne se camoufle plus, sauf quand elle veut jouer ? la cachette.

Les illustrations empreintes de d?licatesse d'Aura Parker sont un vrai r?gal pour les yeux. Les enfants de tout ?ge appr?cieront particuli?rement les chiffres dissimul's dans les illustrations ainsi que le jeu cherche-et-trouve ? la fin du livre.

Why won't someone play with me?

Twig is a stick insect, long and thin like the twig of a tree. It's her first day at Bug School, where she hopes to learn lots and make new friends. But no one will talk to her . . . and no one will play with her at lunch. No one notices her at all-not even her teacher Miss Orb. Perhaps she's blending in with the branches a little too well Finally, Twig speaks up for herself and Miss Orb comes up with a plan to help Twig stand out.

Aura Parker's winsome illustrations are a pure delight. Kids of all ages will pour over the adorable details as well as enjoy the numbers and counting elements throughout the story. The endpapers are a delight and each includes a search-and-find activity.
