In "One for All: A Pennsylvania Number Book," author Trinka Hakes Noble invites young readers to join her as she counts her way through the history and traditions of the great state of Pennsylvania. Using state symbols, landmark events, and famous people, numbers come to life in simple rhymes, accompanied by detailed expository text.

Starting with one of the most recognized symbols in the state (and country!)

"Our Liberty Bell is number 1,
announcing the birth of our nation.
It rang from Independence Hall so high,
In 1776, in the month of July. "

and working all the way up through the largest chocolate factory in the world!

"100 chocolate kisses
is just the right amount
to fill our sweet tooth's wishes--
Let's do a backward count!"
