What kind of exciting stories could Emmadine the cow tell her grandcows? About the time she swatted seventeen horseflies? Right. Or the time she chased a crow from the corn? Whoop-dee-doo.So when Emmadine learned that Admiral Richard E. Byrd was looking for a few good cows to take to the South Pole, she volunteered--boldly going where no cow had gone before. Loosely based on a historical event, Eileen Spinelli's humorous tale of Emmadine's adventures will delight young readers, while Bill Slavin's bold acrylic illustrations bring this unique and heroic cow to life. Recommended for ages 3 and up.
