Marilyn D. Anderson I like writing books, but sometimes it's fun to write something short. When I feel like that, I write stories or articles for magazines such as:
 
  • Faces
  • Cobblestone
  • Hopscotch
  • Boys' Quest
  • Fun For Kidz
  • Young Salvationist
  • Discovery Trails
  • Bread for God's Children
  • Primary Treasure
  • On-the-Line
  • Story Friends
  • Guide Magazine
  • Horsepower
  • Midwest Hunter
  • Appaloosa Horse Journal
  • Library Talk
  • Once Upon A Time
  • The Children's Writer
  • The Writer's Journal

Here's a very short article that was published in Story Friends:

MOO

What does a cow say?

Moo!

What does "moo" mean?

Probably "I'm hungry," because a cow's life is mostly eating and drinking.

A dairy cow is God's milk factory on legs. She can produce over 6 gallons of milk per day after eating about half a bathtub full of her favorite foods. Grass, hay, chopped corn, or a mixture of other grain such as oats are some of her favorites. She also needs half a bathtub full of water per day.

A cow's stomach has 4 parts. This means she can grab a lot of food without bothering to chew it. Her food waits in the first part of her stomach until she takes a rest. Then she brings the food back to her mouth for more chewing. No wonder it seems as if cows are always eating.
