(3) K-3 Illustrated by Russell Julian. When Emma's cows gets mixed up with Cowboy Kirby's, he suggests: "Count 1, 2, 3, 4... / Keep the cattle in a line. / Even numbers will be yours. / All the odd ones will be mine." After the cows start roaming, Kirby mistakenly halves his total while Emma's grows and grows. Playful illustrations of mischievous bovines reinforce the story's humor.
