This is one of the Abrams Books for Young Readers. "Ninety-Three in My Family" shows that some families are larger than others, and some families are simply huge! In this lively account of a very big family, the young narrator tells his mailman all about the ninety-two people and animals that live at his house. From mealtime to bath time to bedtime, ordinary activities become extraordinary when you live with twenty-seven owls, eleven dogs, six goldfish, a carsick gerbil and numerous other furry, feathery, and finned friends. Readers will delight in the cheerful chaos and counting opportunities that abound in this silly story. It is perfect for sharing with families big and small. From an on-line posting: Erica S. Perl has been writing from a young age. Her first published poem appeared in the children s literary magazine Cricket at the age of eight. In high school, she won local, state and national writing awards and was selected to attend the New England Young Writers Conference at Breadloaf. As an adult she has brought her talent for writing to the world of children's literature, receiving fantastic reviews for her first two books, one of which was chosen as a Book Sense Pick, and being named a "writer to watch" by Washingtonian Magazine. Erica's books are written in bouncy and infectious rhyming verse that keeps kids engaged even while they're learning something new. Chicken Bedtime is Really Early keenly incorporates time-telling into its rhymes, and Ninety-Three in My Family brings math into an engaging, beautifully-rhymed story of a child and his huge family. One of Erica's favorite things about being an author is getting together with kids and sharing with the world the wonderful personality that made her books such a success. She has a variety of workshops and presentations available, and a remarkable ability to engage the children--while reading Chicken Bedtime is Really Early, she is apt to put on a chicken hat and lead the kids in chicken songs!
