She begins with similarities in appearance - 'three with orange hair' (mother, child, one cat) . . . then moves on to more idiosyncratic groups: 'one who can crawl under the fridge' . . . What emerges is a cozy portrait of two cats and three people who make up one loving family.” —\u003ci\u003eStarred, The Horn Book\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“This clever, multi-layered book is as much for sharing and getting little ones on the path to deductive reasoning as it is for reading.” —\u003ci\u003eStarred, Booklist\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLong-listed Child Magazine Best Books of the Year, American Library Association Notable Children's Books (2002), Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Blue Ribbon Award (2001), Commended Charlotte Zolotow Award \/ Honor Book, Boston Globe – Horn Book Award, Honor Books, Winner BCCB Blue Ribbon Award (2001), Boston Globe – Horn Book Award, Honor Books (2001), Long-listed ALA Notable Children's Books (2002), Long-listed Boston Globe-Horn Bk Award, Honor Bk (2001), Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books Blue Ribbon Award, American Library Association Notable Children's Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9780374423285\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Square Fish","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40656500392142,"sku":"9780374423285","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/getimage_d2c966e7-4534-4663-a121-dfd60c2fd2e5.jpg?v=1639449014","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9780374423285","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
