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.
Once upon a time there was an old man and an old woman who were very
lonely. They decided to get a cat, but when the old man went out
searching, he found not one cat, but millions and billions and trillions
of cats! Unable to decide which one would be the best pet, he brought
them all home.
How the old couple came to have just one cat to call their own is a
classic tale that has been loved for generations. Winner of a Newbery
Honor, this collector's edition--featuring a heavy interior stock, spot
gloss and embossing on the cover, and a thread-sewn binding--will bring
this beloved tale to a whole new generation of readers.
