20 Big Trucks in the Middle of the Street by Mark Lee illustrated by Kurt Cyrus

An ice cream truck breaks down in the middle of a boy's street.  Truck after truck stops and a major traffic jam occurs!
A bird's eye view offers the reader an opportunity to count all twenty trucks.
The numerals are included in the sentences but are not in big font.  The adult reader must point out or have the listener point to the numbers if numeral recognition is one's goal.
On a positive note, there are not many books out there that count up to twenty.
The book is a bigger a size than most picture books so it is a good choice for story time.
