The Little Crooked Bookshelf



This week's pick is by Cottager Kristin Tracy

Moo! 
by David LaRochelle
illustrated by Mike Wohnoutka

What it's all about . . .
This is the story of a rule-breaking and risk-taking cow that mostly only uses one word: Moo.

Why it’s on the Crooked Bookshelf . . .

A cow driving a car is always a winning combination (in storybooks only).

Our favorite lines . . .

Moo?

Our favorite illustration . . .

Why kids will love it . . .
The cow has a ton of charisma and nerve as it sets out on an unbelievable (and short) adventure. Kids will love watching this cow’s big driving adventure.

Why grown-ups will love it . . .

It’s a smart and fun book that’s easy to read out loud (repeatedly) and it also lets the reader make his or her moos as expressive as needed.
