Brief Summary and how I would use this book with students: Gobble Gobble Crash! A Barnyard Counting Bash is a book about learning how to count. It talks about different animals getting ready to go to bed when some turkeys begin to wake everyone up. The turkeys eventually wake up the Farmer and his wife. They get very angry and all the animals start to go back to bed. At this point the counting reverses and goes backwards. Until the counting gets back to the turkeys who wake everyone up once again. This book would be a great asset to the classroom when teaching young children how to count. The book makes learning how to count fun and tells a story at the same time. It even teaches children how to count backwards which is also a good skill to learn.
