"The Tale of the Muley Cow" by Arthur Scott Bailey is a children's story written during the early 20th century. This charming tale is part of the "Slumber-Town Tales" series, which features the adventures of various anthropomorphized farm animals, aiming to delight young readers aged three to eight. The primary topic revolves around the daily life of a cow named Muley and her relationships with her owner, Johnnie Green, and her fellow barnyard companions. In this narrative, the Muley Cow finds herself as the centerpiece of attention for young Johnnie Green, who has recently been given the responsibility of caring for her. As Johnnie learns to milk her, the story unfolds to explore themes of ownership, friendship, and the dynamics of farm life. The tale highlights Muley's experiences, showcasing her personality as she deals with jealousy from other farm animals, her humorous interactions with characters like old Mr. Crow, and the challenges presented when Farmer Green attempts to modify her routine with a milking machine. Through engaging escapades, Bailey conveys valuable lessons about kindness, responsibility, and acceptance, all wrapped in lighthearted humor suitable for children.
