Cow with one horn
Khothatso Ranoosi and Marion Drew

English
Heeeee! There is a beautiful cow at home.
It has only one horn, and no tail.
It is fat, with a big stomach.
It is a powerful cow.
The shepherd loves this cow the most.
When the other cattle graze, this one eats alone.
This cow is a fighter. Other cows leave it alone.
If you met such a cow, what would you do?
