Zoomy Cow

There once was a zoomy cow. He didn't have any legs, instead he had big
blue wheels. He used them to race to and fro, this way and that. He raced
everywhere he went. He would race around the barn. He was super fast. He
would zoom zoom zoom all over there place. None of the other farm animals
could keep up with him because he was a zoomy cow. Zoomy cow's are the
fastest cows on the planet.

One day he noticed that one of his wheels was bent. He didn't know how it
had happened. He didn't remember hurting his wheel but it was surly bent.
His wheel wouldn't zoom very fast at all.This made zoomy cow very sad. All
of the other farm animals could tell that zoomy cow was sad. They wanted to
make him happy again. They decided to have a big race. When zoomy cow won
the race it was sure to make him happy again, the farm animals thought.

They told zoomy cow about the race. Even though his wheel was hurt they
talked him into racing with them. The rooster crowed and the animals took
off. Zoomy cow tried to keep up but his wheel started hurting worse and he
had to slow down. The other farm animals noticed that zoomy cow had slowed
down so they all slowed down too.

When zoomy cow caught up with the rest of the farm animals he asked them
why they had all slowed down. They told him that they wanted him to win the
race so that he would feel better about himself.

Knowing that the other farm animals wanted zoomy cow to be happy made him
feel a lot better. He told them that he didn't want to win the race. He
wanted for all of them to cross the finish line together. They all held
hands and crossed the finish line at the same time. Everyone was happy,
including zoomy cow. It was a good day for zoomy cow and all of his farm
animal friends.

No zoomy cows were harmed in the writing of this story.
