Customer Reviews

If Rosie recommends it, I'm buying it

I saw this book on the ROSIE O'DONNELL SHOW today and recognized it immediately. My sister bought this book for my 5 year old nephew and our whole family fell in love with it! The story is wonderful and really emphasizes the importance of doing things as a family to both children AND PARENTS. The book benefits an adoption charity which I find admirable and each book publishes kids work in a special section. As soon as my son turns 6 he'll be sending out his first submission! I can't tell you how refreshing I found this book, I just can't wait until ours arrives!

Everybody Moos at Cows

I liked Everybody Moos at Cows because it teaches family values. I love the illustrations and the story about Matthew McFarland. At first he doesn't want to spend the day with his family because he would rather play with his friends. By the end of the day he realizes that spending time with Mom and Dad can be fun and cool!

Highly recommended for young readers ages 3 to 8

In Everybody Moos At Cows! - Even Matthew Mcfarland, Lisa Willever asks and answers the critically important question: "Does anyone moo at cows anymore?" The debut title in the Franklin Mason Press "Matthew McFarland" picturebook series, we are introduced to Matthew and the McFarland Family -- a bit old fashioned by today's standards, but in this family the parents are the bosses and the kids (whether they like it or not) do the listening. And Matthew, despite his many efforts, simply cannot talk his parents out of what they know is best! Lisa Willever's humorous, rhyming text is very nicely reinforced and showcased by the lively illustrations of Elaine Poller and Glenn Byrne. A special feature is the reservation of two pages for a "Guest Young Author & Illustrator". Highly recommended for young readers ages 3 to 8, and Preschool through third grade.
