Children whose reading skills, but not their taste in reading matter, have matured can join cows Minnie and Moo in their first chapter book. Cazet provides illustrations every few pages to pace and outline the comical plot, a slighly more advanced vocabulary, plenty of droll dialogue, and a cast of familiar characters. This extended story allows kids easy entry into the world's eighth wonder: reading.
