Description
Elsie Bovary is a cow and a pretty happy one at that. Until one night, Elsie sneaks out of the pasture and finds herself drawn to the farmhouse. Through the window, she sees the farmerโs family gathered around a bright Box God โ and what the Box God reveals about something called an โindustrial meat farmโ shakes Elsieโs understanding of her world to its core.The only solution? To escape to a better, safer world. And so a motley crew is formed: Elsie; Shalom, a grumpy pig whoโs recently converted to Judaism; and Tom, a suave turkey who canโt fly, but can work an iPhone with his beak. Toting stolen passports and slapdash human disguises, they head for the airportโฆ
Elsie is our wise-cracking, slyly witty narrator; Tom dispenses psychiatric advice in a fake German accent; and Shalom ends up unexpectedly uniting Israelis and Palestinians. David Duchovnyโs charismatic creatures point the way toward a mutual understanding and acceptance the world desperately needs. ISBN:9781472225887
