Where's My Cow? It is based on a book that features in Pratchett's Discworld novel Thud! The cover Wheres My Cow? a gold sticker reading " OOK! The book is written as a children's picture book and Wheres My Cow? the story of Sam Vimes reading the picture book Where's My Cow? The book describes the search for a cow, in which various animals that are Wheres My Cow? cows are identified by Wheres My Cow? noise they make. Sam eventually decides that this is a daft way to look for a cow, and that Young Sam should, in any case, be getting taught about Ankh-Morpork rather than animals he will only see on a plate. He therefore attempts to rework the story into what he calls the 'Vimes street version', about a search for "daddy" through the city, encountering such characters as Cut-Me-Own-Throat DibblerFoul Ole Ronand the Patrician. In Thud! Sam then stuck rigidly to the authorized version. In the framing story of Where's My Cow? There are three art styles in the book, all drawn by Melvyn Grant. The first art style is a fairly realistic style, with a slight cartoony feel. This is used for Vimes relating the story Wheres My Cow? Young Sam. The second style is that of the book within the book, which is simple, with thick lines and pastel colours. The pictures of Vimes and Young Sam are in front of these pictures, and do not interact with them. The third style Wheres My Cow? when Vimes starts changing the story. The Discworld characters are drawn in the same Wheres My Cow? as Vimes and Young Sam, but the pastel animals are still present, and all three settings the world of Where's My Cow? The objects in Young Sam's nursery also become animated. This quite possibly Wheres My Cow? Young Sam's imagination. The illustration of the nursery contains as an Easter egg a painting of the author himself, Terry Pratchett. Also of note is that the various other animals, which are mistaken for cows, are drawn in such a way that their outlines, combined with their surroundings, forms a cow shape. For example, the sheep has a tree's branches for horns and a rabbit chewing greenery for an udder, the Wheres My Cow? has a pitchfork for horns and a chicken for an udder, etc. In this book Vimes bears a passing resemblance to actor . Pratchett has previously commented that this is who he has always perceived Vimes as looking like, rather than 's ' Clint Eastwood ' representation. The book has played a cameo at the end of Wintersmithbeing read by the character Rob Anybody. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. SF Site. Retrieved 24 May Terry Pratchett 's Discworld.

The Lawful Good hero allows no excuses, every day at six he reads the book to his son, and provides all of the necessary sound effects. So it contains scenes and pages from the Discworld novel but it is also about Vimes reading the book to the child and taking some fun artistic Wheres My Cow? just as he did in Thud! Jun 12, Joey Woolfardis rated it really liked it Shelves:ownmasculinebookshelfillustratedpterryhumourchampion. I was going to suggest that if you didn't like Discworld you wouldn't really appreciate this, but I think that's wrong. Of course, any Wheres My Cow? fan will undoubtedly find anything with Sam Vimes in it impossible to resist; he's one of my personal favourites, though I tend to imagine him younger and better looking we're all allowed our little perks. It definitely wasn't what I was expecting, either. I was expecting a book wherein the cow was eventually found by whomsoever might have owned it, b I was going to suggest that if you didn't Wheres My Cow? Discworld you wouldn't really appreciate this, but I think that's wrong. I was expecting a book Wheres My Cow? the cow was eventually found by whomsoever might have owned it, but it turns in to something much more magical and probably deeply philosophical, and very, very Vimes. Dec 17, Guy Terry rated it it was amazing. The finest literary work of our time, "Where's My Cow?

A work of existentialist realism that surpasses criticism. If there was one Wheres My Cow? I would have to Wheres My Cow? on a desert island, it is this one. Whilst superficially targeted at children, who will not see this as anything other than the hunt for a missing bovine, every adult should take time to ponder Wheres My Cow? metaphysical message imparted on each page. By what mechanism do we identify the things around us? What is the next stage of Wheres My Cow? deductive process if there is mismatch between auditory input and memor A work of existentialist realism that surpasses criticism. What is the next stage of the deductive process if there is mismatch between auditory input and memory? In a few short pages with exquisite illustrations which would make Michaleangelo weep with jealousy Heisenberg can be certain, Zarathustra may remain silent and Proust can stay in bed. Had this book been available at the time, it would had deflected Harold's arrow, given Cleopatra the strength to resist the asp's venom, or made Shakespeare realise that there was no point in trying Wheres My Cow? compete with perfection.

I don't think you need an understanding of the Discworld to enjoy this fable, but it does help. My adult son enjoyed it with only a very superficial sense of Pratchettian fantasy. The art is a true asset, gorgeous even when illustrating 'ugly' elements, and funny entirely on its own. Would have been a great gift for Father's Day.
