Description
Millions of Cats by Wanda Gág is a timeless picture book that has enchanted generations of readers with its rhythmic text, whimsical illustrations, and heartfelt message. Originally published in 1928, it received a Newbery Honor in 1929—the first picture book ever to be recognized by the Newbery committee. The story follows an elderly man who sets out to find a single cat for his lonely wife, only to be overwhelmed by "millions and billions and trillions of cats." Unable to choose just one, he brings them all home, leading to a humorous and surprising outcome that teaches a gentle lesson about humility and self-worth. Gág’s distinctive black-and-white illustrations, hand-lettered text, and poetic repetition create a unique storytelling experience that is both simple and profound. Her innovative combination of text and image helped shape the modern picture book genre. The tale’s charm lies in its balance of fantasy and moral insight, making it appealing to young children while offering meaningful reflections for adult readers as well. Millions of Cats remains one of the most beloved American picture books of all time—celebrated for its originality, warmth, and enduring literary and artistic value.
