title: Cows Can't Spin Silk: Animal Creations (Cows Can't Series)
author:  Dave Reisman 
description: &quot;These three books by Dave Reisman will help with <b>teaching kids about animals</b> but in a fun way and with a <b>hidden lesson</b>. My two youngest children have enjoyed them immensely. There are tons of books for kids about animals but they are all very similar. Most are just funny stories where the animals are often alive or live in a house. The typical animal children&apos;s nonfiction book shows an animal per page with information on its species, habitat and way of life.<br /><br />THESE books by Dave Reisman are <b>different</b> because:<br /><br /><ul><li>they teach about animals <b>BUT</b></li><li>without overwhelming the child with information <b>AND</b></li><li>while keeping it simple and memorable.</li><li>Now children as young as 2 can start learning about animals and what they DO, how they MOVE and what they SAY.</li></ul><br />The first book, <i>Cows Can&apos;t Jump</i> is about <b>how animals move</b>: <i>&apos;Cows can&apos;t jump... but they can swim. Gorillas can&apos;t swim... but they can swim.&apos;</i><br />The second book, <i>Cows Can&apos;t Quack</i> is about <b>what animals say</b>: <i>&apos;Cows can&apos;t quack... but they can moo. Moose can&apos;t moo ... but they can grunt.&apos;</i><br />The third book, <i>Cows Can&apos;t Spin Silk</i> is about <b>what animals do</b>: <i>&apos;Cows can&apos;t spin silk... but they can make milk. Woodpeckers can&apos;t make milk... but they can hammer holes.&apos;</i><br /><br />They aren&apos;t just fun and educational, they also <b>teach an important value</b>...Each book from Jumping Cow Press illustrates something the animal can&apos;t do but is followed by what the animal can do. What this means is that <b>the books show children that it&apos;s okay to be different</b>. It&apos;s okay if they can&apos;t do something because they can do something else.&quot;<br /><br /><b>-- Callista&apos;s Ramblings</b>

  “How about a confession?”
  
  
  “I’m listening,” he assured her.
  
  
  “This is the first time I’ve ever danced in a field of cows.”
  
  
  “The cows are on the other side of the fence, so we’re actually dancing in a
  field beside a field of cows.”
  
  
  “I stand corrected,” she said. “In a field beside a field of cows.”
  
  
  He smiled then. “And if I kissed you now, would it be the first time you’ve
  ever been kissed in a field beside a field of cows?”
  
  
  Her breath caught in her throat, but somehow she managed to respond, “It would
  be.”
  
  
  “Then let’s make this a night of firsts,” he said and lowered his mouth to
  touch hers.
  
  
  And then—
  
  
  Oh. My. God.
  
  
  —he was kissing her.
  
  
  His lips were warm and firm and confident as they moved over hers, proving
  that the man had not just experience but some serious skill, and Haylee’s
  brain scrambled as she tried to keep up.
  
  
  She’d been kissed before, of course, but never like this.
