Ten Puppies — Lynn Reiser

Woof! Mother Dog has TEN puppies.
Nine have pink tongues.
One has a blue tongue.
Eight have pointed noses.
Two have flat noses.
Seven have floppy ears.
Three have perky ears ... Yip! Yip! Ten puppies group
and regroup.
Mother dog counts
and recounts.
9 + 1 = 10
8 + 2 = 10
7 + 3 = 10 ... Arf! Arf! Mother Dog has TEN puppies.
No two are exactly alike.
Each is remarkable.
And, added together,
they equal a family. Rrufff!
