Here is the sequel to the runaway bestseller, COW POWER, much loved by children all around the country. Cow No. 569, the cow who rescued farmer Kim Riley from the raging Manawatu floodwaters, was in fact pregnant at the time. Seven months after that heroic feat she gave birth to her eighth calf - a bull. BABY COW POWER is the story of the birth of that calf and of the events that unfolded after he was born. After being almost lost in a storm, he is looked after by Farmer Riley. He becomes almost as famous as his mother, and is then named in a competition run by the local radio station. Being a bull, he has to leave the farm but, unlike most bobby calves, he is auctioned off in a Plunket charity auction at the local AandP show - very much a star. He goes to live happily ever after at the Owlcatraz Farm Park in Shannon. Once again this book is delightfully illustrated by the talented Deb Hinde.
