Cows Are Cool – When you see a cow standing in the pasture blandly chewing some dreary bit of grass and staring into the middle distance you’d never guess what lies beneath that placid exterior. It may look like she doesn’t have a care in the world, but there’s a lot going on behind those big brown eyes. Cows are as diverse as people. Well… did you hear of a cow who befriended a leopard, or a cow who licked a dead child and somehow revived him? Do you know about the brave cow who escaped from a slaughterhouse and another one who saved a large chunk of Canadian territory?

While Ida May is daydreaming her 26 cows get loose and she must get them back into the corral.

This New York Times bestseller recounts the true story of the touching gift bestowed on the US by the Maasai people in the wake of the September 11 attacks. In June of 2002, a mere nine months since the September 11 attacks, a very unusual ceremony begins in a far-flung village in western Kenya. An American diplomat is surrounded by hundreds of Maasai people. A gift is about to be bestowed upon the American men, women, and children, and he is there to accept it. The gift is as unexpected as it is extraordinary. Hearts are raw as these legendary Maasai warriors offer their gift to a grieving people half a world away. Word of the gift will travel newswires around the globe, and for the heartsick American nation, the gift of fourteen cows emerges from the choking dust and darkness as a soft light of hope―and friendship. With stunning paintings from Thomas Gonzalez, master storyteller Carmen Agra Deedy (in collaboration with Naiyomah) hits all the right notes in this elegant story of generosity that crosses boundaries, nations, and cultures.
