Get the Christmas gift everyone is MOOing about! Cow Christmas book perfect gift for all ages on your list! |
"As the 52nd Princess Kay of the Milky Way I spend a lot of time in the classroom teaching children about dairy farming. I also like to read them a cow story and what better story to read than "Mr. Gonopolis and his 12 Holsteins - A Christmas Story"! There is nothing, but pure delight on the childrens' faces as they enjoy the equisite, vibrant pictures and the creative dialogue of the story. Even I, as an adult thouroughly enjoy this midwestern fictional farm story! It is a cow story I will treasure for life and share with everyone I can! Whether you are a city or a country person this charming story will bring the true meaning of Christmas along with some crazy dairy farm fun, to your house!

Christmas book! Audio CD!
Use player below to hear |
 The original Cow Christmas gift book is back! Long before the Santa Cows books there was the simple Christmas story of a substitute Santa with 12 flying milk cows who needed to deliver the gifts for Santa one Christmas. Holy cow! Buy online though PayPal- FREE Shipping Don't have a Paypal account? No worries -- you can use your credit card or bank account through PayPal too! Magical flying milk cows with names like Bessie, Bossie, Gertude and Hulda replace Prancer and Dancer and Donner and Vixen. A rusty old grain wagon stands in for Santa's sleigh. Farmer Ole Gonopolis doesn't get Santa's instructions on delivering Christmas gifts quite right -- in fact, he really messes them up! But in doing so, he discovers the true meaning of Christmas isn't Christmas gifts -- it's the gift of caring. It's that heart, and message of rural American values, that has inspired elementary schools in Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois and Maryland to adapt the story as Christmas paegants. For many families, a Christmas Eve reading of "Mr. Gonopolis" around the Christmas tree nestled among the Christmas gifts has become a tradition. This book began as a Christmas gift for Uncle Hyggly's own nephews and nieces, who always asked him what gifts Santa was going to bring this Christmas. Hyggly always teased them (to their delight) that Santa wasn't coming, but some old farmer was bring their gifts this Christmas! Click here to see the original cover from 20 years ago! Book makes the perfect Christmas gift idea! Author/illustrator Uncle Hyggly returns with this 20th anniversary edition of "Mr. Gonopolis And His 12 Holsteins — A Christmas Story" reillustrated in full color for the first time and in hard cover too! Shipping now! He is happy to personally autograph your books to your recipents: "To Heather, Have a Dairy Christmas and a Happy MOOOO Year, Love Uncle Hyggly." An autographed book makes the perfect Christmas gift for almost anyone on your Christmas list. Audio CD is a great Christmas gift, too! While the book is shipping now, Uncle Hyggly has reteamed with Minnesota composer/performer George Maurer in a special 20th anniversary audio CD version of the Minnesota Christmas story. Their original version played on radio stations from coast-to-coast. It also makes a tremendous and unique Christmas gift. Uncle Hyggly has written a new Christmas song on the album: May all your Christmases be Black & White. Dairy Christmas and happy MOO year So if you are looking for a unique Christmas gift -- new Christmas story, a country Christmas book, a story about a substitute Santa delivering Christmas gifts, a Norwegian Christmas book or Scandinavian Christmas book or just a rural American children's book that appeals to people of all ages (the best children's books are never JUST for the kids) a Christmas story that hails from just north of Garrison Keillor's Lake Wobegon (Lake Wobegon is around Albany, Minnesota, while Mr. Gonopolis takes place around the Ashby-Dalton area of Minnesota), give "Mr. Gonopolis And His 12 Holsteins" a look -- you'll be glad you did! |
