Marjorie the cow is terribly excited. She’s going to enter her daughter, Daisy, in the Baby Cow Contest. Daisy has been a very special cow ever since the day that she surprised everyone by hatching out of an egg! Marjorie feels sure that Daisy will win, hooves down.

But the other mothers are starting to talk… Daisy isn’t quite like the other babies; she’s small and feathery, and she can’t even chew the cud yet. Is there something Marjorie should know?

There are plenty of surprises in store for Marjorie the cow in this hilarious book from the creators of The Cow That Laid an Egg.
