Some of the best books I've found are by Mitsumasa Anno, a Japanese math teacher turned children's book author. Math themed books of his that we've returned to over and over are "Anno's Counting House" and "Anno's Magic Seeds." (Yes, his name is annoyingly part of the title.) I've heard the "Anno's Mysterious Multiplying Jar" is good too, but we haven't read it. Another fun one is Eric Carle's wordless "1 2 3 To the Zoo." I like your blog by the way.
