Cows have troubles, calves, and characters, and Peter McArthur writes them all with wry affection. His red cow and her friends gather farmyard essays on sick cows, fly time, and the insurgent herd. Warm, humorous, and full of rural charm. A gentle celebration of the barnyard and its stubborn, lovable inhabitants. Spend a season on the farm with a writer who truly loved his cows. A ballad for the herd.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
