Oh no - watch out! Don't look now!
Inside this book is an EXPLODING cow!
Five...Four...Three...Two...One...KAPOW!
More rhyming mayhem and comic madness from the bestselling duo of the inspired 'Just!' series. Andy Griffiths' rhyming text - that will entice and engage the most reluctant child to read while laughing all the way - is hilariously counterpointed by Terry Denton's delightfully wonky illustrations.

A joyously silly series propelled by kid-pleasing, tongue-tripping verse and edgy, stick-figure-filled illustrations. Ideal for beginning or reluctant readers, but will delight readers of all ages and abilities. Review: "For the first time, my seven and a half year old twins wanted to read tonight. We had bought a copy of the big fat cow book...they have been really struggling, but the look on their faces tonight when they found a book they could not only enjoy but also read was so special. Thank you for writing a book for kids who have difficulties learning to read. Please write more. lots more." (Maureen Germein) Review: "Griffiths's innovative book for beginning readers collects nine short, intentionally silly snippets propelled by kid-pleasing, tongue-tripping verse...offbeat, ironic humor."
