About the Author:
Woody Jackson lives in Addison County, Vermont—the land of milk and honey. He discovered art and cows at Middlebury College, from which he graduated in 1970. He created ties among the dairymen and -women there and has been creating bovine artwork ever since. He also received an MFA from the Yale School of Art and lived in New York City. Vermont is where his heart and art coexist. His cows grace the sides of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream trucks as well as many art collections.
From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 2?Minimal text and brightly colored panoramas depict a cow countdown (from 10-1) that includes "Nine fenced Friesians," "Six haying heifers," "Two crossing bossies," etc. Impressionistic gouache and watercolor double-page spreads are attractive, but bovine figures are frequently so abstract as to be identifiable only by their consistent black-and-white color. In one instance, two of the "Eight cool cattle" blend so closely they could almost be mistaken for one?an unacceptable lapse in a counting book for preschoolers. Rural backdrops vary widely from farm to pond to field; the Holsteins are the only constant. In a surprise ending, following a spread of "Zero cows," the previously pastoral animals don western-style clothing, play music, and hold a "Barn dance!" This slight picture book is mainly for the artist's fans who can't get enough of his favorite subject.?Tana Elias, Meadowridge Branch Library, Madison, WI
