"For I have learned to be content with whatever I have." Philippians 4:11 (NRSV)Once upon a time, in a misty mountain village of Thailand, a barefoot boy lived with his father, mother, and five quarreling sisters....So begins Cows in the House, a rollicking retelling of a folktale about a little barefoot boy who is going to go crazy if he has to live with his five fussing sisters for another minute. Fortunately, the barefoot boy's wise old grandfather knows a clever way to take care of the problem--if only the boy can live through it! Will mooing, chewing cows in the house really do the trick?Beverly Lewis brings her delightful skill with words into play in this light-hearted romp with a valuable lesson about contentment, whimsically illustrated by Chi Chung.
