They work together with the simple words to tell the reader what is going on, and create anticipation for what will happen. The illustrations can't help but tell the story - they are the lines for the moos, and the scenery for the cow's great adventure. There is artistry in conveying emotion and story-telling language through moos, and this book is proof of that. However, I read this book out loud to a 16-month old, and even she knew what was going on. The catch of the book is that it is written in only Moos and punctuation. This joyride inevitably ends in disaster, and the cow is forced to tell his owner about the event. Moo!

Personal experience with the book, when I was reading it with my little brother he would scream MOO when the sentence had an exclamation point.

I really enjoyed reading the book, it was fun and easy children will enjoy. Colors such as blue, green, yellows and other colors were used. Some illustrations were a full page with text on the other side but no white space was used. Each illustration was well design and placed in the appropriate place in the page. I love how the author used one word throughout the book. When the cow sees a car for sale he decides to ride it when he sees a sign he screams MOO! Stay tuned and see what happens next.
