Stack the Cats is a charming book about counting and organizing cats in various formations. But when the cats decide to go their own way - as cats often will - it's time to count down until there's only one proud cat and bird left. Counting forward and backward, understanding when there is more or less of something, and grouping and recognizing items are key early math skills for toddlers, making these books as developmentally sound as they are visually engaging.

Reviews for Stack the Cats

**STARRED REVIEW** As fun as it is clever, Ghahremani's cat-infested concept book is a treat. --Booklist **STARRED REVIEW** Counting from one to 10 is the usual math activity in simple picture books, but this one takes on other mathematical operations, too... Thanks to its gentle inconsistencies, this is a book that can expand children's thought processes. --Kirkus Brightly colored, this utterly charming board book teaching children how to count to ten (and back again!) is very highly recommended for family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library collections. --Midwest Book Review Cat lovers will pore over the fluffy, fuzzy, striped, and splotchy felines rendered in clear digital hues that pop against mint-green and orange backgrounds...though listeners should probably be warned that stacking may not go over well with actual cats. --Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Crisp, bold illustrations to introduce simple math concepts that go beyond the usual counting fare for the very young... A simple yet clever lesson that there's more than one way to stack some cats. Ideal for one-on-one and small group sharing. --School Library Journal Ten cats attempt to stack themselves into impossibly adorable towers in a book that's ideal for children (or adults). . . The cats all but beg to be named by readers, who will flip back through this sublimely silly outing to choose their favorites. --Publishers Weekly
