Huw’s family’s good fortune changes for the better when the silver cow falls in love with music from Huw’s harp; it changes again, however, because of his father’s interminable greed. The Welsh countryside comes to life in soft, evocative watercolor illustration and a rhythmic retelling of a traditional tale.
