Counting with Tiny Cat
Author: Silvia Viviane Schwarz

Published: Walker Books Ltd, United Kingdom, 2019
"A study in counting, and even more the record of a cat's futile pursuit of personal fulfillment and identity through the acquisition of little red balls of yarn ... it works beautifully" The New York Times
At first Tiny Cat has none. Then, what's that? One! Two! Three! And ... four! Oops, bonk, now there's more! Soon Tiny Cat has as many red balls of wool as you can get. Then some extra. Too many...?! Will Tiny Cat ever have just enough?
With very few words - and loads of visual humour - this is a very funny first counting book with a wonderfully feline twist in the tail!
