Ages 4 and up. Most cows spend their lives in a pasture, happily chewing on grass, but not Shamoo. Shamoo yearned for something more, something like the sea. His desire to swim in the ocean leads him to Baleen, a six-ton humpback whale who becomes both a friend and teacher. Will Shamoo stay with his new friend or return to the pasture? This lovely children's book from noted artist Ros Hill is filled with his beautiful color illustrations.
