reSchool-Grade 2-Cappuccina is a cow who wants to be a person. A break in the fence is her opportunity to go to town and there she does what many humans love to do most-shop. She looks at shoes, hats, dresses, and wigs, all in "Blooooooo!" (It is her favorite color.) Her hooves, horns, and tail get in the way of a perfect fit for anything, until the hairdresser ties a simple blue bow around her tail. Then she heads for home and her dinner of "crunchy hay and sweet alfalfa," happy to be a cow. Although they have never served a customer quite like Cappuccina before, the tradespeople treat her with respect and try hard to meet her needs. No one sees the cow shopping in town as an odd occurrence. The gouache illustrations are fun, and Cappuccina is drawn as a lovable bovine. Children will enjoy the humorous pictures of a cow in clothes, while older children will like the play on words. This entertaining book is a fine addition for storytime.
