Find a Cow Now!

Find a Cow Now! by Janet Stevens & Susan Stevens Crummel
Youth New Book Shelves--Lower Level--STE

When a cattle dog gets tired of lying around his city house, he begins to throw chairs and shake rugs. This aggravates the family parakeet, who tells the cattle dog that he's supposed to herd cows. The parakeet, full of half-baked wisdom, does not know what a cow is but tells the cattle dog that cows live in the country. This sends the cattle dog on a journey to the country where he tries to herd a variety of farm animals until he finally gets it right.

Find a Cow Now! is a hilarious book that will delight children and adults alike. The illustrations are so beautiful and detailed that children will want to examine them after the story has ended. This is an especially good story to read aloud since it features a variety of animal noises and character dialogue. A truly wonderful read!
