"The Mad Cow" does not refer to madness. Rather, it is about Barney and Savannah dealing with environmental issues such as mad cow disease. Mostly, this little book is about harmony and coming together in peace. Children should enjoy the adventure of the big cows and the little cows.

The last time we saw the RaKKoon Gang, those little fellows were crashing Bucky’s kitchen and causing a disruption to the annual block party. It had been a few months since that fiasco occurred in suburbia. Of course, Bucky the bucktooth boy was still upset and continued on his mission to catch the critters.

The RaKKoon Gang were heading to the city.
