A good group read aloud for older elementary children

This is an appealing book about a singing cow with an unexpected ending. Children can sympathize with the cow and her understanding farmer. The story tells of this cow's talent and her exploitation by a greedy talent agent. The illustrations are big and uncluttered and well illustrate the story's events and emotions. Delightful!

The synopsis is wrong.

Don't pay any attention to the synopsis given for this book, it is wrong. This book has nothing to do with rabbits. It is about a cow. This is a wonderful book, a great story to tell or read to children, by a wonderful author. Answers the question "Why do cows gather under trees in the summer?"
