Series

Adventures of Cow

A squish toy cow travels in a yellow backpack. She asks various misidentified farm animals how to get home, because she is very confused and not really smart. Back home, she talks to her family which are a penguin doorstep, a hippo vase, and a vegetable brush. Her aunt, a vegetable brush, suggests that she write books about her adventures. That causes the toy cow to become famous and appear on TV.[1]

Adventures of Cow Too

Cow needs groceries and she has just a few items on the list. Also, Cow needs to make it home on time. It has vocabulary mix-ups and silly on-location photographs.[1][4]

Reception

Adventures of Cow was selected as a Sonder Books Stand Out (2005)[5] and received positive reviews from Eclectica Magazine,[6] The Book Stacks,[7] Kirkus Reviews,[8] and Armchair Interviews.[9]

The School Library Journal reviewed in poorly, stating, "For children in the concrete stages of development, this book will be confusing, not funny. Other youngsters will just be bored."[10]
