Mille Waits for the Mail

Millie Waits for the MailI don't know about you, but the cows I've seen do nothing more than stand around in the field, grazing and swatting flies with their tails. Such boring animals. Just wait until you meet Millie; she's unlike any cow you've ever encountered.

Surprisingly, Millie's favorite thing to do each day is wait for the mailman - but not because she's waiting for a letter or even a package. Millie is mischievous, and more than anything, she loves to scare the mailman.

Coming up with all kinds of interesting hiding places, she manages to scare the poor mailman each and every day - much to the dismay of the farmer.

The mailman decides to give Millie a package of her own, in hopes that she will be more friendly towards him. The plan backfires, leaving Millie with a smashed package and the mailman with a broken bicycle. How in the world is he supposed to deliver mail now?

We just read this tonight and I loved it. Great illustrations and humor that makes me laugh out loud - it's definitely a keeper!
