The Big Fat Cow That Goes Kapow


Griffiths, Andy. The Big Fat Cow that Goes Kapow. Illustrated by Terry Denton. Feiwel and Friends. 124 pages.

This early reader is heavily illustrated. So don't be intimidated by its length! It's a fun little collection of stories--rhyming stories--that are just about right.

It's raining
big fat cows
today.
How many cows?
It's hard to say.
A big cow here.
A fat cow there.
Big fat cows are
Everywhere!
Cows underwater.
Cows in space.
Big fat cows
all over the place!


Of course that little story goes on...and you might have guessed it...one big fat cow does explode with a big kapow.

If exploding cows aren't your cup of tea, perhaps the story of Brave Dave or Klaus the Mouse will suit you better! There's really something for everyone here. It's a cute and funny little book.

Definitely recommended.
