Little readers of this sunny picture book will have fun guessing along with Millie whom the artist in the meadow is painting - until the final work of art is revealed. When an artist comes to the meadow, Millie the knobby-kneed calf watches and guesses as he paints each of her colorful friends - Ladybug, Spider, and Bunny. Will he ever paint a picture of me? Millie wonders. Spots . . . skinny legs . . . a swishing tail. It's Millie! With springlike watercolors and simple, inviting text, Janet Pedersen creates a cheerful story about an innocent and irresistible calf who learns a little about those around her and a lot about herself.
A young artist comes to the meadow to paint. Millie the cow watches and readers can guess who the artist is drawing by Millie's descriptions. The illustrations are cheery and whimsical. Karen Woodworth-Roman, Librarian
