Comments:  This book is a Beehive Award Nominee.  It is a delightful book.  It illustrates an imaginative explanation for a cowlick.  It is about a boy and his brother who go to sleep at night, only to have a cow sneak into the house and give them a kiss/lick that leaves their hair standing straight up in the air.  Cowlick!  The kids love this book.
