World Landmarks with the Herd

The postie dropped a big sack at the farm gate. "Mail for the herd!" she called.

Spike tipped it out. Postcards slid everywhere, each with a picture of a famous place.

"How do we know who gets which one?" asked Little Thunder.

"Each cow is named after a city," said Suzy. "Look at the picture, then find the cow."

The first card showed a tall iron tower. "That's the Eiffel Tower," said Spike. "It's in Paris."

Paris the cow mooed happily and took her card.

The next card showed a red gate and a snowy mountain. "Mount Fuji, in Japan," said Suzy. "That's for Tokyo!"

Little Thunder picked up a card with a big stone wall winding over the hills. "Is this a very long fence?"

"It's the Great Wall of China," laughed Spike. "That's for Beijing."

Soon every cow had a postcard. They pinned them up on the barn wall.

Little Thunder looked at them all. "One day," he said, "I want to send a postcard home from far away too."
