Taking the Cows Home

Using rhythmic text to help build children's reading skills, this tale is an entertaining glimpse into the life of a child in Cape Town, South Africa, and an event that really took place. Andre lives on a farm surrounded by ducks, geese, pigs, sheep, and cows. One day, Andre's cows wandered into the town, and Lynne and her dog, Famous, helped take the stray cows home.
