Blurb About: Millie Moo - Roger Priddy

  • Millie Moo
  • Roger Priddy
  • Series: Touch and Feel Picture Books
  • Board book: 20 pages
  • Publisher: Priddy Books (November 5, 2005)

Roger Priddy is no newcomer in the world of picture books although his creations usually fall in the children's reference category with titles like First 100 Words. Millie Moo is the exception to his usual grid layout of point-and-say learning books. 

Millie Moo is a 'Touch and Feel' book with a plot, which is a bit of a rarity. The reader is asked to guess what animal they are feeling before turning the page only to be surprised with a silly unexpected hybrid such as a fish with fingers or multi-colored zebras. So where are all the farm animals? You will have to keep turning the pages to find out. 

In our house, we love to read Millie Moo with a cowgirl accent as if Millie Moo herself, a hyper-color cow, is rounding up her farm full of animals after another hard day on the plains.
