Gauri and the Talking Cow by Devdutt Pattanaik

Little girl Gauri thinks milk comes from packets; till she meets Sweety the talking cow. Sweety tells Gauri about the first cow on earth; Surabhi; and how she provided so many useful things to man—fuel; manure; medicine and shelter. Sweety narrates stories about a king who found good luck because he gifted cows to many people; and how another king was turned into a lizard because he was not careful about who he gave his cows to! Sweety also tells Gauri how Krishna the cowherd looked after his beloved animals; and why Kali decided to comb her hair. Join Gauri in a magical world of talking animals as she finds out why the cow is a really cool animal!
