Product Information

"This amusing picture book is a worthy successor to Chickens to the Rescue (2006) and Pigs to the Rescue (2010)."--"Booklist Online" ..".this expressive and determined herd of cows should have readers laughing until the you-know-whats come home." --"Publishers Weekly" "The pencil and watercolor illustrations are packed with plenty of personality and have enough detail to keep kids turning the pages to learn the outcome. Children will, of course, pipe up with the refrain 'Cows to the Rescue!' in group readings and during lapsits, and the mad antics of these friendly and very game rescuers will delight them." --"SLJ" "Himmelman's illustrations are such an artful eyeful--snappily colored and gloriously comic--that it is easy to overlook the pleasure of the simple text, a little motor that in many ways drives the whole production forward." --"Kirkus Reviews"
