Jimmy Milks a Cow - Early Reader - Children's Picture Books Your child will love reading this book, or you will enjoy reading it to your child. This book is a really fun book about a young man's desire to accomplish something that all of his friends and classmates don't believe he can do. He believes in his dream and is able to accomplish his goal. An easy reading book with colorful graphics. Jimmy's whole class was going to Mr. Redman's Farm to see all of his animals. Jimmy couldn't wait! His mom didn't even have to rush him to eat breakfast or tell him to brush his teeth. "I will pet a chicken, I will see the pigs!" Jimmy exclaimed to his mom while she cooked breakfast for Jimmy. Then a new thought came to Jimmy, "I will milk a cow!" Jimmy exclaimed. Jimmy's mom laughed and hurried Jimmy to eat so that he could catch the bus. Jimmy wondered if the bus would ever get to school as he dreamed of his field trip to Mr. Redman's Farm. Finally, Jimmy and his class were on their way! Jimmy told all his friends that he was going to milk a cow and they all laughed. Jimmy wondered why everyone laughed and didn't believe him. It seemed like it took forever to get to the farm but everyone said it was only 30 minutes away. Then Jimmy saw it, Mr. Redman's Farm! All the children screamed and yelled in joy! A man with a straw hat and overalls met the bus. The man was smiling and waving. He looked as excited as Jimmy was! The children got off the bus one by one and Jimmy was careful to stay in a straight line like the teacher said. Mr. Redman started talking to the 2nd grade class and telling them all about his farm. They walked from barn to barn. Jimmy got to pet a chicken, Jimmy saw the pigs. Now, all he had to do was find the cows! Jimmy kept reminding everyone he was going to milk a cow. Billy, one of Jimmy's friends, laughed really loud and said "You can't milk a cow!" Jimmy frowned and said "Why not?" Billy said "Duh, why would they let you and not us?" Jimmy didn't know the answer; he just knew he was going to milk a cow. As they all got closer to the cow barn, Jimmy grew more and more excited. Mr. Redman showed them around the barn. He explained and pointed to the stalls and the feed troughs. Then, he showed them the cows behind the barn! Jimmy was in awe. They were black and white and so big! He'd rode by a field of cows before but he'd never been this close to one before! "WOW!" Jimmy said.
