The cows in Lily's herd are always dignified as they walk from the barn to the pasture. But Lily would much rather prance and dance! One day Lily decides to leave the farm and venture out on her own.
All over the world-from New York City to Spain to Senegal-Lily learns new dances and makes wonderful friends. But none of the dances are quite right for a cow, and soon Lily starts to miss home. Will she ever find a place where she fits in?
Spirited, funny, and utterly uplifting, Prancing, Dancing Lily is sure to delight anyone who has ever felt different from the herd.

From the Author:
I grew up on a farm surrounded by cows and calves. My daughter, Amy, is a dancer. Is it any surprise I wrote a story about a dancing cow? I never saw a dancing cow in our pasture, but I often helped my father call the cows in for milking. We sounded a lot like Farmer Gibson calling Rose, Lily, and the rest of the herd. "Come on in Rose. Milking Time!"
From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 2--This witty picture book stars a dairy cow who will soon inherit the position of "Bell Cow," the leader of the herd. Unfortunately, Lily's inability to stop "prancing and dancing" casts doubt on her leadership abilities. Discouraged, Lily sets off on a globe-trotting journey to find her true place in the world, an adventure that gives her the confidence to break with conformity and return home to lead in her own unique way. Arnold's amusing characters and clever text come to life through Manders's comical cartoon illustrations. Peppered with playful humor, his pencil-sketch and paint technique gives the images a distinctive look. The book is well designed from the clean pages to the endpapers, which provide a map plotting Lily's travels. This great read-aloud provides a subtle message and a guaranteed good time.--Julie Roach, Malden Public Library, MA
