Thump, creaak, clink-clunk . . . MOOOOO!
Mr. and Mrs. Noodleman don’t know what to do. They’ve left city life behind and moved to the country with hopes of being farmers. But their dreams turn grim when nightly visits from Boo Cow scare the Noodlemans’ hens so much, they won’t lay any eggs! These first-time farmers are at a loss. Why is Boo Cow haunting them, and how can they banish this ghostly bovine visitor?
