Cute Xmas Book

Cute Xmas book. Nice parody of the night before Xmas. Great for those who collect cows, or maybe your favorite dairy farmer. There is some product placement in the art which I think is a little sneaky. Author of "Hobo Finds A Home"

Weird, Wacky and a total Christmas favorite in our house!

This is one of the strangest Christmas books you will ever read. It's about a family who are celebrating Christmas Eve in their own lazy way---playing videos games and eating pizza (the Domino man seems like he's part of the family!) when all of a sudden Santa Cows appear in the sky outside their window. They are there to furfill the wish of the father, Elwood, who had them visit in his own youth. They lead the family in carols and give them all baseball equipment to play all of the Christmas Eve night! The pictures are terrific. They show a very down to earth, non-fancy family, with all kinds of neat details of their life. The Christmas message is there, but in a subtle and fun to read way. Not like any other Christmas book out there!

Great Silly Book!

I'm 19 with two kids of my own and have had this book since I was little! I loved it then & my kids love it now! My oldest daughter loves it so much she makes daddy read it EVERY NIGHT before bed!! It's a fun & silly twist on a classic!

Santa Cows

If you want to read an excellent Christmas Book, the book Santa Cows is the book for you. This amazing book was created by an wonderful author Cooper Edens. It is an exciting and adventurous picture book. I strongly suggest you read it. The setting in this story is on Christmas Eve. The children were watching television and eating crackers chips etc. Outside there is a noise and you might have guessed it, it wasd the Santa Cows. The cows come through the chimney with a surprise. After the surprise is discovered the cows go outside with the people and play a well known sport. I was very excited the first time I read this amazing book. I enjoyed it very much. I really think you should read it. It has many wonderful features, features such as rhymes and similies. The sound of Twas The Night Before Christmas kicks it up a knoch. It really has beautiful illustrations. I strongly encourage you to read this fantastic book.

Very silly! Very fun!

A silly parody of The Night Before Christmas for the young at heart. I especially recommend this book to all bovine enthusiasts. Santa Claus..........Mo-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-ve over!
