With the leisurely pace of a herd of cows ambling to the barn at sundown, Cooper begins his detailed account of how ice cream is made. From the milking machine to the truck that "drives through the country, stopping at other farms until its belly is full of six thousand gallons of milk," Cooper balances the relevant facts with his folksy, child-centered descriptions of minutiae. Relaxed pencil and watercolor drawings imply as much as they show. Glos.
