Finished Reading - How many Cats?

Product Description:

A quiet afternoon for one quickly becomes a party for twenty. As new kitties join the fun, Lauren Thompson's clever verse helps young readers count from one to twenty and back again, introducing them to early math skills along the way.

Review
This is the cutest book! A lone dog sits in the house and there are Zero cats but when his housemate comes home....along come the neighbors too!

I love the illustrations and the verse. One the great things is not only are you learning to count but do MATH too!

Twelve fine cats in three lines of four
flaunt and flounce across the floor.

and the illustration shows three groups of four cats dancing! And as the cats are dashing out the door, one waves to the dog!

Too Cute! My copy used to be a library book and some one drew in it :(
