IT'S 'UDDER' MADNESS!

Follow the adventures of Professor McMoo and his team of time-travelling crimebusting cows - perfect for children ready to start reading chapter books by themselves.

Product Description

Genius cow Professor McMoo and his trusty sidekicks, Pat and Bo, are the star agents of the C.I.A. - short for COWS IN ACTION! They travel through time, fighting evil bulls from the future and keeping history on the right track . . .

When Professor McMoo invents a brilliant TIME MACHINE, he and his friends are soon attacked by a terrifying TER-MOO-NATOR - a deadly robo-cow who wants to mess with the past and change the future! And that's only the start of an incredible ADVENTURE that takes McMoo, Pat and Bo from a cow paradise in the future to the SCARY dungeons of King Henry VIII . . .

It's time for action. COWS IN ACTION

4.0 out of 5 stars Another fun preteen boys book from Steve Cole, 12 Sep 2007
By 
Keith Joseph (West Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)    (VINE VOICE)    (TOP 10 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Cows in Action: The Ter-moo-nators: Book 1 (Paperback)
If you and your child are an Astrosaur fan you will have no problem enjoying this book. Read the Amazon review above - it describes the book very well. Cows from our time have just been bred for high intelligence, and bright bull Prof. McMoo uses discarded rubbish from the human scientist next door to convert the cow shed into a time machine. Using his technology, in the 26th century mad cows from the F.B.I (Fed-up Bulls Institute) build the fearsome ter-moo-nators, part cyborg part bovine killing machines, and send them back into time to try to destroy human history. Only the Cows-In-Action (CIA) can save the future by preserving the past. Lots of good Sci-Fi and clever childish Moo related jokes abound to amuse any kid under 12, although boys might go for this book a bit more readily than girls. This must be the first book in the C.I.A. series, so I would read it first.

Perhaps the book isn't quite as polished as the excellent Astrosaurs series of books and I find I stumble on the cow names McMoo and Bo when reading it out loud to my son (11) - a poor reader, but there's no denying it was a fun easy read with a lot of good line drawings to set the mood as well. There's also 4 collector cards inside to cut out. The books got 147 pages of large text and most 8+ children will be able to read it themselves with a little adult help. The book is mildly tense, quite funny, and not scary. We now have the next two Cows-in-action books on order. So recommended (I should have given the book 5 stars really). Do also try the Astrosaurs & Captain Underpants series of books as well, they are very preteen boy friendly.

I like this book because it's exciting, and full of funny moo jokes. I enjoyed my Dad reading it and reading it to myself. I learnt about Egypt and pyramids. Andy (age7)

This review is from: Cows in Action: The Ter-moo-nators: Book 1 (Paperback)
I bought this for my son's 9th birthday as he had mentioned about these books at school. He then used his birthday money to buy the rest in the series. I generally had to encourage him to read however he couldn't put these books down and chose to read them rather than watch a dvd!! Excellent buy.
