About this product

Product Information

An American classic with a refrain that millions of kids love to chant: Hundreds of cats, thousands of cats, millions and billions and trillions of cats . Wanda Gág's enchanting tale of the very old man who went off in search of the prettiest cat in the world for his wife and returned instead with millions to choose from has become an American classic, widely recognized as the first modern picture book. First published in 1928, it was a recipient of the 1929 Newbery Honor Award and has gone on to sell over a million copies. With its charming illustrations and rhythmic, singsong refrain, Millions of Cats remains as beloved today as it was when it first appeared almost a century ago.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

    A timeless classic

    I fondly remember this great little book from my own childhood and now have purchased it for my grandchildren. This is a great story to read over and over, one that a child will love to repeat from memory, chanting the poetic phrases, while the moral of the story builds character-- to promote an ethic of caring and inclusiveness. No childhood should miss out on this little book!

    Content vs cover

    The book content had a good lesson; however, the book cover was surprisingly old and damaged. I thought I was buying a book that was in a relatively better shape. It was a discarded old book from an elementary school in Maryland, complete with a stamp saying so.

  • Millions Of Cats could be shorter but good story

    This was another childhood favorite of mine. I've recently rediscovered a number of my favorites as I have to read to girlfriend's son bedtime stories. I now know why my mother would get bored reading this story because it's slightly long for a children's bedtime story - although it would make a great story to read to a group of children and maybe then show them some kittens and let them pick out their favorite or maybe read this to your child before you go pick out a cat from the shelter or pet store - as it teaches that you need to find a n extra special cat not just the first one you see or necessarily the first cute one you see.

  • Millions of Cats

    A delightful classic that never loses its appeal for children. I had this book as a child and now my granddaughter has it and will hopefully save it for her children.
