Welcome to Brown Cow Farm, an old Maine farm where the animals seem to appear faster than they can be counted. In her inimitable style, Dahlov Ipcar has created this charming counting book. Entering the big brown barn on a snowy day, children and parents alike can count aloud the animals they find there, from a big shiny brown horse to nine brown hens with zigzag combs. When springtime comes, watch out; that’s when all the baby animals are born and we discover one of the unique features of this book: Unlike most counting books, which end at ten or twenty, Brown Cow Farm allows readers to count all the way to one hundred.
