Sometimes learning to count can be hard for children, engaging them in fun books to help is a great idea. These two books I used to learn how to count when I was a kid and both were engaging and fun. The Very Hungry Caterpillar teaches counting while incorporating colorful pictures that engage the reader. Chicka Chicka 1 2 3 also teaches counting in a fun way and has fun pictures and jokes to keep the students engaged and learning.
