Series
;Adventures of Cow
A squish toy cow, travels in a yellow backpack. She asks various misidentified farm animals how to get home, because she is very confused and not really smart. Back home, she talks to her family which are a penguin doorstep, a hippo vase, and a vegetable brush. Her aunt, a vegetable brush, suggests that she write books about her adventures. That causes the toy cow to become famous and appear on TV.

Reception
*"For children in the concrete stages of development, this book will be confusing, not funny. Other youngsters will just be bored.", Carolyn Janssen, of School Library Journal
*"Preschoolers will delightedly roar out corrections--'Those aren't cats! They're geese!' -- but Cow's decidedly skewed view of reality will engender hoots from any audience.", Kirkus Reviews
*"If you are looking for a book to produce quality family time, this one will certainly open up the road for discussion with the six-and-under crowd", Armchair Interviews
*"...honestly, I really didn't want to like Adventures of Cow (or its sequel, Adventures of Cow, Too), but damned if I couldn't stop happily laughing all the way through the two stories of this silly little plastic heifer", Colleen Mondor, Eclectica
*".'.story is told matter-of-factly and simply. Combined with the pictures of the little foam cow, it comes out supremely silly and utterly hilarious", Sonderbook
*"... I warn you now to watch out for puns. There are a couple of groaners towards the end that I loved", The Book Stacks
