Meet a Baby Cow by Buffy Silverman

Meet a Baby Cow by Buffy Silverman

Baby cows are skinny at birth. Yet they can stand right away. And they grow really quickly! Did you know that a full-grown cow weighs about as much as a whole class of fourth-graders? Or that it takes an entire herd to raise one baby calf? Read this book to find out more!

Buffy Silverman is the author of many books about nature and science for children. She also enjoys writing poetry for children. Buffy is lucky to live in a rural area of Michigan where inspiration is just outside the window. The sun shimmers on Stony Lake. A great blue heron flies low over the swamp. Black squirrels scamper across oak branches, stuffing leaves in their mouths and bringing them to a hollow. The animals that share her yard inspire stories and poems. With every book and article she writes, she learns more about the world.
