Cow Boy Is NOT a Cowboy : Gregory Barrington

Hardcover | JUVENILE FICTION/Animals / Farm Animals | Not much happens on Humdrum Farm and that is not okay with the adventurous Goat Girl. She’s looking for excitement! Goat Girl thinks she may have found it when she encounters a bull named Merle, who she is sure is a brave cowboy since he is in fact a boy and a cow. “HOWDY, COWBOY!” He tries to set things straight . . . “I AM NOT A COWBOY.” . . . only to have her prove he’s been wrong all along—maybe he is a brave cowboy after all. In a delightfully funny picture book with surprises at every corner, Merle and Goat Girl teach kids about staying true to oneself, living out their dreams, and stepping out of one’s comfort zone. It’s a brilliant take on unlikely friendships like never seen before.
