It features four boys and four girls who each experience the number four as both a little and a lot, delighting young readers while teaching number sense and age-appropriate vocabulary. Adopting the theme as a "four-losophy," the book was illustrated by four different artists, and the publisher "pays it four-ward" by donating four percent of book profits to each of four charities (16% total)!
