Conjuror Cow

Conjuror Cow is a brilliantly funny lift-the-flap board book by Julia Donaldson, author of The Gruffalo, and Nick Sharratt, illustrator of You Choose.

Everyone's waiting, the lights have gone low.
So open the curtains and on with the show!

It's Conjuror Cow's big night and she is feeling nervous – will she be able to pull a white rabbit out of her hat? Lift the flaps to see what she makes appear instead. A bunch of flowers? A pig? And lots of pants?! Find out if she manages to wave her wand and save the magic show.
