A Moose for Jessica is a 1987 non-fiction children's book about a moose named Josh who loved a cow called Jessica.[1] The story is told by Pat A. Wakefield and is illustrated with photographs by Larry Carrara, the owner of the cow.

In 1986, Josh turned up at a farm in Shrewsbury, Vermont and began to show decided attraction toward Jessica, a Hereford cow. He stayed in the vicinity for 76 days.[2] The visit of the moose inspired media attention and attracted tens of thousands of people to the area.[3] [4]

Reception

Kirkus Reviews described the book as "unique, fascinating, and delightful." The New York Times Book Review commented: "This quiet, unpretentious story has the magic of credibility thanks to Pat A. Wakefield's simple, intelligent writing, enhanced by wonderful photographs."[5]

It was named as an Outstanding Science Trade Book for Children by the National Science Teachers Association and as one of the year's best books by Publishers Weekly.[5]
