Summary

The words cattle drive have new meaning as clever cows Mabel and Molly sneak Farmer's keys from his back pocket to take the truck for a quick spin. They can't read stop signs, have never heard a police siren, and don't know what flashing lights mean or where to find the brake pedal. Chickens and hay bales fly, police give chase, and the mayor shakes his fists in frustration. These cows do make a festive sight with the debris from their close encounter with the mayor's prize flowerbeds filling the streets in â€˜the best parade we've ever seen!' They are celebrities. The people wanted autographs,/but cows, of course, can't spell./They stamped their hooves in pads of ink,/which worked out rather well
