Veronica’s Busy Day Is Here!
On Veroncia’s Busy Day She helped Pip. She helped Millie. She helped Otto. And then… everyone needed help at once.
We are so excited to share that Veronica’s Very Busy Day — Book 3 in the Veronica the Clever Cow series — is now available on Amazon! 🎉
This one is close to our hearts. It’s a story about the joy of helping, the importance of rest, and the magic that happens when everyone looks after each other.
Veronica runs and rushes and hurries until her head starts to spin. She forgets to eat. She forgets to rest. And then… things go tumbling everywhere.
Sometimes even the cleverest cow needs to stop.
Set in the Alps of Austria, Veronica’s Very Busy Day is warm, funny, and perfect for little ones aged 3–7 — whether it’s bedtime, storytime, or a quiet moment in the classroom.

Why We Made This Book
Every book in the Veronica the Clever Cow series starts with a real feeling — something worth talking about with little ones. With Veronica’s Busy Day, we wanted to explore something every child (and honestly, every grown-up) knows: what happens when you try to do too much at once.
Veronica isn’t reckless. She isn’t careless. She’s just kind — and sometimes kindness can run away with you. She says yes to everyone because she genuinely wants to help. And that’s what makes her tumble all the more relatable.
We’ve watched children immediately recognise that feeling. The overwhelm. The spinning head. The moment when everything feels like too much. And we’ve watched their faces light up when Veronica’s friends gather around her — not to rescue her, but to remind her that she doesn’t have to do it alone.
That’s the heart of this book.
What Little Readers Will Take Away
Veronica’s Busy Day opens up some really rich conversations for after storytime:
- It’s okay to feel overwhelmed — even when you’re trying your best
- Asking for help is a strength, not a weakness
- Rest isn’t giving up — it’s part of doing things well
- The best communities are the ones where everyone looks after each other
These are big ideas, wrapped up in a warm, funny story about a cow, a piglet, a mouse, a horse, and a whole farmyard of friends who figure it out together.
Perfect For
Veronica’s Busy Day is ideal for:
- Bedtime reading — the gentle, calming ending is perfect for winding down
- Classroom read-alouds — sparks great group discussions about feelings and teamwork
- Children who take on too much — a gentle mirror for little helpers who need permission to rest
- Parents and teachers — an easy, natural way to open conversations about emotional regulation
