Cynthia Ann Parkers family moved to Central Texas when she was about nine years old. A year later, a large force of Comanche warriors attacked Fort Parker and seized Cynthia Ann and four other captives. The other four were eventually released, but she lived among the Indians for 25 years, immersed in the Comanche way of life. Though given a number of opportunities to go back to her white family, she always chose her life with the Comanche, choosing instead to stay with her husband and children. She eventually returned to white society as an adult.

This book offers a tactile, interactive way to learn how to count to 20. Children are encouraged to trace the numbers with their fingers, find objects, and turn the wheel to reveal the correct number. It will help develop their fine motor skills as well as their powers of observation.
