Summary[]
Little Miss Tidy has a bucket for milking cows and answers the question in the title: "In the toy box? Or under the bed? But no! Cows don't need to store milk. They carry it around. In their udders, under their bellies, between their legs. Cows produce milk to feed their calves. It's automatic! All mammalian mothers build up milk in their udders after giving birth. Human mothers do the same! Cows produce a lot of milk, so we take some from them to drink. We press the cow's udder and the milk comes out... Pop! In a bucket! We call it 'milking a cow'" all whilst empathizing with the reader.
