The Richest Cow in the World

A fun 21st-century take on the classic fisherman parable from Barroux. Cow is enjoying lying under an apple tree, watching the clouds, when Pig happens by. Looking at all the apples on the tree, Pig begins to spin an elaborate and ever-expanding tale about how Cow could pick and sell the apples and build a multinational food company – becoming the richest cow in the world! Cow listens patiently. But what comes next after fame and fortune? Cow shows Pig she’s got a much better plan! This fantastical, slyly humorous story will enchant readers while encouraging them to consider what really makes people happy.
