Lift the flaps to find the sounds animals make.

A humorous picture book filled with wordplay and mixed-up onomatopoeia, Cow Says Meow features bold graphic art and silly animals. Cow says . . . Meow! Cat says . . . Neigh! . . . or does it? With bold graphic art and a punny narrator, this zany picture book is full of outrageously mixed-up animal sounds. Puns and wordplay will leave readers giggling through the roller-coaster of sounds all the way to the final pages featuring the correct animal noises. Cow Says Meow is a perfect read aloud for home, the classroom, or anywhere else, and will delight fans of Cece Bell’s I Yam a Donkey and David Ezra Stein's Interrupting Chicken.

Presents questions about the sounds different animals make such as "Do goats growl?" and "Do hamsters hoot?" with the answers hidden beneath the flaps.

A noisy rooster causes a disgruntled cat to cast a magic spell that creates confusion among the other farm animals.

Lift the flaps to find the sounds animals make.

Rhyming text and flaps reveal a variety of animals and the sounds they make, including hamsters, birds, and bunnies.

A string of comically stylized animals greet each other in masterfully rhyming couplets—an owl’s “hoo” is answered by a cow’s “moo”; a crow’s “caw” is returned with a donkey’s “hee-haw”—all leading up to the “hi!” and “good-bye!” of a human toddler and his mom! The first in a brand-new board book series on animal (and human) first words by award-winning author and illustrator Ethan Long.
