Minnie and Moo, the funniest and sweetest friends since Frog and Toad, will have young readers laughing out loud. Minnie and Moo stories are fun stand-alone reads and also perfect for reading aloud as they are full of fun dialogue from these silly and adorable cows. Denys Cazet was an elementary school teacher for 25 years, and has also been a school librarian and elementary school media specialist. He was inspired to tell stories about cows' silly best friends when he passed a herd of cows in which all but two were facing the same direction. Those two nonconformist cows became Minnie and Moo. Minnie and Moo: Wanted Dead or Alive is a level three book that I can read. Level 3 includes many fun topics that children love to read about on their own. Themes include friendship, adventure, historical fiction, and science. Level 3 books are written for beginning independent readers. They include some challenging words and more complex themes and stories.
