"This concept book would work equally well in the classroom or at
storytime." --School Library Journal-- (9/1/2010 12:00:00 AM)
"Trudy Harris's rhyming verses have a kind of jazzy beat that fits
with the alley cats. Andrew N. Harris's illustrations
anthropomorphize his subjects, clothing them and giving them
eyebrows and human-like eyes--both of which get a lot of use,
especially when it comes to the other cats' putting up with the
fraudulent tallies. Backmatter teaches readers how to use tally
marks to count objects. Math and a lesson in friendship rolled into
one." --Kirkus Reviews-- (9/1/2010 12:00:00 AM)
