Customer Reviews

Cow Adventurer

Cappuccina is a spunky cow who longs to take a day off from the farm and visit the nearby town. While in town she tries to buy shoes, a dress and have her hair down. Since she is a cow, none of this works out for her. After a pleasant but tiring day, Cappuccina is glad to head back home with a bow on her tail. An upbeat picture book with great illustrations.

Wonderful Children's Book

A beautifully written and illustrated children's book. I was lucky enough to meet Mary Ann Smith and witness a reading in front of a group of children whose imaginations were held captive by this lovely story and woman.This is a book that should be part of every childs library. I look forward to the next adventure!

The best children's book I've written to date.

Just want readers to know how much fun my mother and I had writing this book - and reading the manuscript to hundreds of elementary school children along the way. They get credit for letting us know how much fun it is for kids to chime in on the "Bloooooooos" in Cappuccina. And they get credit for giving us lots of ideas about where Cappuccina should go next! New York? The Army? The Moon? Stay tuned.Meanwhile, fyi, Mary Ann Smith, my mother and co-author is NOT the Mary Ann Smith you have listed as author of other books you are recommending. Cappuccina is MY Mary Ann's first published work.Best, Katie Smith Milway
