WITH A FOREWORD BY ALAN BENNETT

´A lovely, thoughtful little book about the intelligence of cows.´ James Rebanks, author of The Shepherd´s Life

Cows are as varied as people. They can be highly intelligent or slow to understand, vain, considerate, proud, shy or inventive.

Although much of a cow´s day is spent eating, they always find time for extra-curricular activities such as babysitting, playing hide and seek, blackberry-picking or fighting a tree.

This is an affectionate record of a hitherto secret world.
