Product Description
"Look at those stars, Minnie," Moo says, wondering. "We can't be the only intelligent life in the universe." Lolling after hours in the farmer's hot tub, Minnie and Moo hardly suspect that aliens are landing just one hill to the west. We see the mite-sized, bug-eyed enemy in alternate chapters, peering through their snooper scope, revving themselves up for an invasion. They mistake the cows for giants, their horns for newfangled weapons, the steaming hot tub for a spaceship moments from liftoff. Minnie and Moo mistake the invaders are mosquitoes, and a hilarious battle ensues -- with an earth-saving flyswatter.

 entertaining story expertly illustrated February 8, 2007
The hilarious story and fabulous illustrations
make a great story for children; also contains
the subtle message for adults of not being
too uptight or making proverbial mountains out
of mole hills.
 Awesome Book August 13, 2006
The first time I read this to my daughter I had to explain how a few things, but then once she got why some of the things were funny... I have never heard her laugh like that over a book before. It's now one of her favorites.

Positively the dumbest book I have ever read to my child. He loves cows, but hates this book, and so do I. It contains jokes he cannot understand, it's illustrations are lame and the premise of the story is stupid
Minnie and Moo Save the Earth just average. April 13, 2000

After my kids and I giggled through Minnie and Moo go to the Moon, we were eager for more adventures of these hilarious cows. In Minnie and Moo Save the Earth, we were a little disappointed. In the story Minnie and Moo are lounging in the farmer's hot tub when they see a comet that appears to land on the hill nearby. It is actually an alien space craft whose passengers believe Minnie and Moo are gigantic earth inhabitants. The hilarity in the first book stemed from the cows interpretation of events. For example, the farmer they believe cannot drive the tractor without his boots and hat. Therefore, they reason if they can wear the boots and hat they too can drive the tractor (very "far side"). This book was just lacking in the same silliness. However, the illustrations were great!
