Book Review

The Big Fat Cow that Goes Kapow
by Andy Griffiths

by Felix Wilkins, Grade Three, Kingsville Primary School., Jul 2008

I like this book because it reminds me of Dr. Seuss books, except with a funny twist. The first chapter, ‘Big Fat Cows’, is a bit weird because it is describing different cows: for example: ‘cows underwater, cows in space, cows in boats, cows in suits, big fat cows in cowboy suits’.

The chapter ‘Klaus the Mouse’ is quite strange, because they are saying he has a small house the size of a mouse. But Klaus the Mouse hates his small house, because Klaus is a BIG mouse – bigger than a person. As big as an elephant!

If you liked the first book, The Cat on the Mat is Flat, then you will like this one even better: even weirder stories and even funnier pictures. Zany, crazy and funny.
