VALERY

Children have a keen sense of the ridiculous and this will tickle them. Valery is a baby calf and she is adopted by the little Whipple boys and brought into their home. She eats up the food, she gets upstairs and won't come down, she insists upon growing into a big cow and taking up all the room -- and finally the Whipples move out and leave their home to Valery and her calf. Sheer nonsense, including the zany drawings by Bill Crawford.
