| Summary | How can an old man and his wife select one cat from a choice of millions and trillions? |
| Summary | "Millions of Cats" by Wanda Gág is a children's picture book published in the late 1920s. This delightful story revolves around an elderly couple who long for companionship and decide to acquire a pet cat. The book features whimsical illustrations and uses a repetitive rhyme scheme that captures the joyful yet chaotic journey of finding a single cat, which unexpectedly leads to an overwhelming abundance of cats. The narrative begins with a very old man and woman who seek to alleviate their loneliness by bringing home a cat. When the man ventures out to find a cat, he ends up choosing countless felines, resulting in a humorous and chaotic situation as millions of cats follow him home. The couple soon realizes that they cannot possibly care for so many cats, leading to a quarrel amongst the cats over who is the prettiest. Ultimately, they discover one humble, unattractive kitten that was overlooked amidst the commotion. This unexpected cat becomes their beloved pet after receiving care and attention, showcasing the moral that beauty is not always what it seems and that love can be found in the most unassuming places.
