Millions of Cats by Wanda Gag

Newbery Medal

There was an old man and an old woman. The woman wanted a cat. So the man went out to get one, but he found millions of them. He brought them all back and the old woman said she only wanted one. So the cats all fought over who was the prettiest. They all ate each other and they were gone. The old man and old woman came out of their house and there was only one cat. They decided to keep it and soon made it plump and pretty.

It was given that title because there were millions of cats in it.
