Customer Reviews

Very cute book, but got a book that was supposed to Be in (very good) condition, but the pages are t

Very cute story. Will definitely get some laughs.

Eggstraordinarily Silly!

A cow that lays an egg? We picked this book up because of the silly title alone. The illustrations are a riot (like the page showing cows riding bicycles and doing handstands)! Somehow Marjorie the cow lays a egg, spotted mysteriously black & white just like a Holstein cow. The other cows are suspicious. The chickens ain't talkin'. The farmer hams it up in front of the news media. Sure, it's the Scam of the Century, but it's a great story about friends (The chickens) helping out a friend (Marjorie) when she was feeling low. And the ending, when the egg finally hatches, will "crack" you up!

Fun Book

I enjoyed reading this book to my 4 yr old daughter who enjoyed it too. Very bright photos. Not a rocket science book, just entertaining and fun bright photos.
