Editorial reviews

A timeless classic narrated in warm and friendly tones by Bruce Bayley Johnson. A very old couple decide to get a feline friend for companionship, but when the old man finds a hill covered in "hundreds of cats, thousands of cats, millions and billions and trillions of cats", he can't help taking them all home. Unfortunately, the cats "eat each other up" when asked who is prettiest, and the only one left is a scrawny kitten who hid because she didn't think she was in the running. Given the right kind of love and nourishment, she blooms into a beauty. This is a sweet story, and children will love repeating the "millions of cats" refrain.

Publisher's summary

Nearly a useless cast-off, Mike Mulligan's steam shovel finds an exciting job to do and endears itself again to the citizens of Popperville.

YES -- Pictures in the Audible App!

We recently discovered these kids audible books that have the illustrations in a slideshow as they listen to the stories on their fire tablets in the app. My boys (5-11) are all LOVING discovering their favorite stories over again with Audible! These are a STEAL!

Slideshow is a cool feature

Classic book, good narration and unobtrusive sound effects. The slide show of illustrations from the book was a nice surprise. I wish all kids books came with them.

Excellent production and classic story!

Any additional comments?

The Weston Woods productions for young children are wonderful! Please add more of these and similar productions by Scholastic, etc. (classic picture books with narration) to Audible catalog.

Where are the pictures?

We've been slowly going through and buying the books in the With Synchronized Images category. This one was placed in that category but doesn't show any illustrations other than the cover image - I wish we could get the illustrated audiobook version or exchange it for one that has pictures!
