Hatch and Match - Ruth Paul

A search-and-match adventure with patterns, colours and number fun from the award-winning author and illustrator, Ruth Paul.

Cluck, cluck, cluck. Scritch and scratch.
Chickens look for eggs that match.

Help the chickens look for their eggs – quickly before they hatch into chicks! There’s lots to find. Some with spots, stripes and even zigzags.
