“Move aside Wilbur and Babe. There’s a new farmyard hero in town, and she has no desire to end up hamburger. In a multiple-perspective, documentary-like format, each animal tells its part of the story with terrific humor and personality … the many voices make the book an ideal read-aloud for a classroom and ideal fodder for readers’ theatre. Bar-el is also unafraid to engage in truly lovely descriptive writing. Part Great Escape, part Hatchet, part Charlotte’s Web, all wonderful.” – Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews
“…[a] cleverly constructed story…. Bar-el creates a humorous chorus of perspectives, temperaments, dialects, and cadences….. Thoroughly charming….” – Starred Review, Publishers Weekly
“At its heart, Audrey (cow) encourages kids to think even as it entertains – the mark of wonderful children’s literature.” – Starred Review, Quill and Quire

Anne of the Island by L M Montgomery
LOVE the new Anne Books!! Funny, I was just telling someone the other day that the oldies can gain popularity again with just a new cover. Kids don’t look at publication dates! I would love Anne of Green Gables because believe it or not, my library doesn’t have it! – A hopeful librarian.
I’d like to be able to share The Green Man with my nephew
Audrey sounds like a fun read!
The Hockey Sweater!!
Audrey (cow) would be loved by the kids!
My daughter would love Audrey (Cow), so that would be my choice.
I’d love one of the new L.M. Montgomery hardcover books. My daughter and I are going to start reading some of them together.
