Me and my children enjoyed this story with all the cow's characters within. It's about cow's and how they chew there food. The illustrations want along with the story quite well. My children had fun looking at the pictures and laughing with the story.

I received a complimentary copy via Netgalley. This is my honest unbiased opinions.

This is a simple book about how cows chew with no top teeth. It’s very short and perfect for Preschoolers who enjoy learning about animals.

I've enjoyed the books I've read in this series. They pack a lot of learning in a fun way! The graphics are goofy and give the book a great feel.

This is a funny children's book about cows and how they eat. I didn't know that cows have no top teeth, but somehow, my daughter knew this and she thought I was silly for not knowing. This is a good book, with lovely graphics, which we both enjoyed.

Many thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This was really cute with a thoughtful way to explain facts about cows to little kids. And I’ll be honest. I have no idea cows don’t have any too teeth. Great illustrations as well!

Cows Have No Top Teeth by Kelly Tills is currently scheduled for release on November 2 2021. In this light-hearted book, learn just how much cows like to chew, even without top teeth. They graze all day, then rest, and chew some more. Enjoy hearing your child shout out the answers to silly questions like "Does a cow drink through a straw?" This call and response format is a time-tested method for keeping kids engaged and interacting, instead of just chewing on the pages.

Cows Have No Top Teeth is a fun and informative nonfiction picture book. The illustrations are cute, and catch the eye to hold the attention of the youngest readers. I thought the facts chosen and the phrasing were accessible and interesting. To be perfectly honest, I had no idea that cows have no top teeth, although I did know most of the other information. I liked that the whole concept of this series, that every one and everything has something different about them, and that difference is wonderful.

This book provides fun, animal facts while entertaining my daughter. I learned something new too as I had no idea cows don't have top teeth. Another enjoyable read with colorful illustrations. Looking forward to reading more in this series.

Thank you Netgalley and BooksGoSocial for the opportunity the read this book.

This book is cute! Children will love it! The illustrations are colourful and charming. Children spend several years losing and growing teeth, so they will readily identify with an animal and their teeth (or lack thereof). I can see them drawn in right away by the title itself: they probably never knew that cows have no top teeth!
The book is informative, and children will learn many things about cows in a fun and interesting way. I love the question "What's the lovely thing about you?" at the end of the book! An excellent way to make something that might be considered "different" about a cow, or a child, into something "lovely." I can't wait to read this at storytime, and hear the responses I get!

I would like to thank #NetGalley and #BooksGoSocial for allowing me the opportunity to read this book, in exchange for my honest review.

This was a fun book for children, even better that it’s educational too. Nicely done abs goes well with the Snakes book by the same author that I also reviewed recently.

A big thank you to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. This is a children's book. This is one in a series. They are great, fun books. The funny thing is that they are nonfiction! Cows really do not have top teeth. They really do love to chew. I think that these are great for early readers. The graphics make the book easier to read and understand, which is very helpful. Kids will love the curious facts that they can learn. Believe me, they will share the facts with their friends. 4 stars

It’s not often that children’s picture books teaches me information I hadn’t known. The Awesome Animals series seems to have changed this! We tried both Geckos Don’t Blink and Cows Have No Top Teeth by Kelly Tills.

We read Cows Have No Top Teeth – information I did not know! This one talked about how cows eat, including their love of chewing and how their tummies work. Talks with my kids? Loose wiggly teeth and what if they have to eat with no teeth (go get some grass!), running around the room screaming ewwww about the cows bellies, and I had to stop my son from trying to eat his sisters stuffed toys.

Cows Have No Top Teeth by Kelly Tills is an adorable and funny book of odd animal facts. it is a welcome addition to the Awesome Animals series, that my kids and I always enjoy!

This was cute. I liked there were educational elements, as well as silly elements. Nice to see a book for younger children, aimed at something a little bit different to the norm. I think maybe a few more bright colours might have held my small humans interest a little better, hence my rating. I thought the illustrations were lovely though, and I quite like the simple style.

Cute pictures, but the story fell flat for me. I saw that there are other books in this "series," but I'm not likely to read or recommend them. Sadly, this one was not a favorite.

A cute book to learn some fun facts about a cow. This is a great book for young readers. Fun illustrations to match the facts.

This is an adorably cute book that my kids, although older, adored reading.

A funny look on how cows eat. I didn't know that cows had no top teeth and what a fun fact to learn with your kiddos. Endearing illustrations of cows and how they eat, how they smile, and how they can bring a smile to your child's face reading this book. A great book for you and your child to enjoy together!

A special thank you to Books Go Social and Netgalley for the ARC and the opportunity to post an honest review.

A delightful tale with simple, yet adorable illustrations. It’s just disgusting enough to interest the most reluctant of readers and fascinating enough for the budding young scientists. Tills has crafted an entire series of books tackling the most obscure and interesting scientific facts about animals. They are entertaining and educational, which can be a tricky balance to maintain in children’s books. This one covers the fact that cows have no top teeth. As someone who spends a lot of time around cows, I appreciated how the simple concept of cows having only bottom teeth had an entire book written devoted to it. The text is easy enough for younger readers to tackle independently and also has some great vocabulary that can be used for lessons. This is one that classrooms will want to add to the science shelf along with the other books in the series.

Thanks to Netgalley and BooksGoSocial for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinions.

This was so cute! Short and sweet. I enjoyed the colorful illustrations and the educational aspect that went into the book. The large and bold fonts were easy to read, and the overall presentation is eye-catching which will be great when reading to small children. Simple little story but fun concept with cute art style and easy to follow writing.
