Bookroo's summary

Meet Millie, a cow with a knack for mischief. While her herd grazes peacefully, Millie finds joy in startling the unsuspecting mail carrier. Each day, she devises new pranks, turning routine mail delivery into a hilarious challenge. Can the mail carrier outsmart Millie, or will her antics continue to reign supreme? Discover the unexpected twists in this delightful tale of bovine mischief and human perseverance.

From the publisher

Millie is unlike most other cows. She chews her cud and grazes in the fields with the others, but she doesn’t enjoy that nearly as much as she loves scaring the mail carrier. It’s too bad the mail carrier doesn’t have as much fun each time Millie comes up with a new way to surprise him. Who knew delivering the mail was going to be such a difficult job?
