Cow behind the wheel

At the publication party yesterday for my new picture book Moo!, extraordinary children's librarian Kim Faurot gave both the illustrator Mike Wohnoutka and I a cow in a remote control car. Kim shaped each cow so that it looked like Mike's illustration, complete with windblown tuft of purple hair and green cowbell necklace. Even the license plate of the car, MOO!, matched the illustration from the book. Kim is a wonder.
