Welcome to the wonderful world of the Digits, a playful new picture book series about a group of number friends. Today, the Digits are moving into The Number Tower, but there is something odd about One’s new apartment. There are too many of everything, and the bed is SO uncomfortable One doesn’t sleep a wink.

Perfect for developing number recognition skills – you can count on the Digits to make numbers fun!

“This introduction to numbers one to ten isn’t a traditional counting book, but more a story about numbers that aims to increase children’s familiarity with them and recognise their shapes. It’s bright and appealing with cute number characters, and there are some useful bits of guidance for parents and carers at the beginning and end of the book that suggest some of the different ways you can look at the book with little ones, as well as activities you can do when you’re out and about, such as looking for numbers when out for a walk.” ― Booktrust

“Project X Alien Adventures provides an excellent addition to our reading provision. It is an outstanding resource because the children love the characters and they become completely absorbed in the story. The gadgets, creatures and strange worlds capture their imagination and interest. When children are so engaged, it makes their capacity to learn so much greater.” Martin Fenton, Headteacher – Greenhill Primary School, Wakefield
