Myron's Magic Cow
 
Myron doesn't like being the one who always has to go to the shops for his mother. But one Sunday, an ordinary errand to buy milk turns into a most unusual adventure when Myron meets a golden-haired girl travelling with three bears - and one real, life-sized cow. Before Myron knows what has happened, the girl has convinced him to trade his milk money for the cow! Children will identify with Myrons plight and everyone will enjoy the story as adventure and humour. The distinctive illustrations perfectly complement the quirky and playful storyline. This makes a fresh, playful addition to fairy tale collections in schools or at home.
