Where’s My Cow? by Terry Pratchett is a delightful and whimsical picture book set in the Discworld universe. Originally introduced in Thud!, this story is an in-world book that Sam Vimes, the commander of the Ankh-Morpork City Watch, reads to his son every day. The book is both a heartwarming children’s tale and a clever satire of parenting and urban life.
The story revolves around a simple question: where is the cow? As Vimes reads, he mimics the sounds of various animals—a cow, a sheep, and a dog, among others—while trying to explain to his son that none of these creatures are relevant to their city life. Instead, he humorously reflects that what his son really needs to recognize are urban “creatures” like the Beggars’ Guild or Foul Ole Ron.
The book offers Pratchett’s signature humor and charm. While it functions well as a children’s story, it also contains subtle humor and commentary aimed at adults, particularly fans of the Discworld series. The illustrations, done by Melvyn Grant, complement the story beautifully, bringing life to Pratchett’s fantastical and satirical world.
Critics and readers appreciate the book’s layered humor and its dual appeal to both children and adults, especially those already familiar with Discworld. It serves as a charming addition to the series, yet it stands well on its own as a fun and playful story about family and the absurdity of daily life.
Where’s My Cow? is beloved for its gentle satire and sweet message about the importance of reading to children, and the ways in which stories can shape our understanding of the world
