Not Now, Cow

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

In Not Now, Cow, award-winning author Tammi Sauer and New York Times bestselling illustrator Troy Cummings present a hilarious, colourful board book in which all the farm animals are ready for the seasons to change—except for Cow!

In this whimsical celebration of the seasons, Rooster and his farm friends are ready for springtime play. But not Cow, who can’t seem to dress for the weather. She’s decked out in a parka and mittens as the first flowers bloom, ski pants and a wool hat as the summer sun beats down, and a bathing suit and flip-flops when snow starts to tumble.

Readers will love shouting out the catchy refrain (“Not NOW, Cow!”) while learning all about the seasons!
