About This Book

The soft rustle of grass and the gentle mooing fill the air on the sunny farm. Jersey the cow feels different—her smooth, plain coat stands out among the spotted herd. When wishing doesn't work, she tries something bold, but will it bring the happiness she’s looking for?

Quick Assessment

This charming early reader story follows Jersey, a cow who feels out of place because she lacks spots like the others. It gently explores themes of self-acceptance and individuality for children ages 5 to 8. The language and situations are appropriate for early readers with no intense content.
