The Cow Loves Cookies
No. of pages 40
With an original twist on the ordinary barnyard book, the latest read-aloud from bestselling author Karma Wilson is a clever exploration of a curious incident on the farm. As the farmer makes his rounds each day, most of the animals chew on the foods a young reader would expect. But when it's time to feed the cow, she feasts on a special treat. Wilson's signature style and Marcellus Hall's spirited watercolors will delight children on and off the farm-because when it comes down to it, who doesn't love milk and cookies?
