"Even today, the appeal of a community (a global community, even) joining together to find a way to help 'this old cow' makes a terrific tale."
--Daily Oklahoman
"Artley's good-humored, vividly colored cartoon art, featuring comically hyperbolic expressions on the faces of characters--human and bovine alike--provide the entertainment."
--Publishers Weekly
Grady is a 1,200-pound Hereford cow that gets herself mysteriously stuck in a silo. No one can figure out how to free her until a heroic reporter from Denver solves the problem. Grady's in the Silo is a charming story about patience and perseverance. Based on a true story, this tale humorously translates a part of Oklahoma folklore in a way that is equally appealing to both parents and children. Grady's story, which began in a small Oklahoma town named Yukon, reached around the world in 1949. Now, more than fifty years later, Una Belle Townsend brings it to life on the page.
