Her simplicity appeals in this complex world.'-St. Her stories always have a funny twist that appeals to children. 'Gág was among the first to create what we now call an artist-concept book-written, designed, and illustrated by one person. With its charming illustrations and rhythmic, singsong refrain, Millions of Cats remains as beloved today as it was when it first appeared almost a century ago. First published in 1928, it was a recipient of the 1929 Newbery Honor Award and has gone on to sell over a million copies. Wanda Gág's enchanting tale of the very old man who went off in search of the prettiest cat in the world for his wife and returned instead with millions to choose from has become an American classic, widely recognized as the first modern picture book.
