I had a thought today as I was reading Millions of Cats by Wanda Gag (there is supposed to be an accent over the a in Gag) to Ellen: What if everyone doesn't know about this book? I love this book. So I've decided to start "reviewing" books I read to the kids too. As I said, I love this book about a very old man and a very old woman who are so lonely they decide to get a cat. The old man sets out to find one and comes upon "hundreds of cats, thousands of cats, millions and billions and trillions of cats." They are all so beautiful that he can't possibly choose just one and ends up bringing all of them home. Then the trouble begins. I think my favorite line in the whole book is, "And they began to quarell."
This is just a wonderful book! If you have not ever read it, please do! And you will find out what really makes a pretty cat.

Always a favorite of mine. And when I was lucky enough to teach the Sunbeams, they love it too.
