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

**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
"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
