Bookroo's summary
A young boy sketches cows, and a gust of wind sends them soaring through the sky. Despite his excitement, no one believes his tale of flying cows. Are they too busy to see the magic above? In a world where anything might be possible, can he convince others to look up and witness the extraordinary?
From the publisher
Cows can’t fly, but I don’t care.One day I drew some in the air!And then, like magic, came a breezethat grabbed my cows and shook the trees…Everyone knows cows can’t fly…but then why are they suddenly soaring all over town? When one boy tries to point them out to his parents, his teacher, or anyone else who will listen, no one believes him. Or can it be that everyone is just too busy looking down? David Milgrim’s bold, graphic pictures and simple text tell the story of one young artist’s most unusual day…in a world where anything just may be possible.
