| Publisher Description: Moo dreams of becoming a sailor. Little does she know, when she sets off toward the sea, that the first crew she joins will be composed of cats. Or that she herself will be hailed by a shipload of pirate steers as their captain s dairy queen. It's amoozing where a dream can take a girl -- a truth which Lisa Wheeler and Ponder Goembel relish here in rollicking words and witty, windblown pictures. |
