"Loaded with Southern charm."
--Kirkus Reviews
"Readers will have a hoot counting from 1 to 10 and back again in pure southern style. From bluetick hounds to banjos and maw-this book has it all, redneck style."
--Reading Teacher
Need to count to ten with a Southern accent? These redneck babies will show you how! From Moon Pies to magnolias and kudzu to catfish, ten diapered dynamos get into all kinds of down-home trouble. Children will love counting down, then up again, to the babies' adventures, while adults hoot at the hilarious rhymes.
In this humorous counting book, author David Davis and illustrator Sue Marshall Ward poke gentle fun at their own "redneck" backgrounds while celebrating what it is like to grow up in the South.
