375M: Susie the Cow

I have a vintage children’s book that I have been looking for that my grandmother used to have for us to read.  The main character of the book was a female cow named Susie and I believe the title of the book was Susie.  If I am remembering correctly the cover of the book was pale blue and had black decorative scrollwork on the corners and her name on the front.  Susie walked upright on her two back legs and wore pretty sundresses, high heels and a pearl necklace. There was a male cow in the book as well and was somewhat of a nerd and became cute and popular at the end of the book.  He liked Susie and I believe they ended up together at the end.  

Many have suggested that this book must be Elsie the cow, but Susie was younger and more stylish.  I imagine they were both from the same time era and the book was from around the 1940’s.

    ‘Valery’ by Elizabeth Mallett Conger? Published 1944.

    About a young cow. Looks like pencil illustrations. Not enough details available on the book to know if it matches your description.

    Pale blue cover, no scrollwork, but black embellishment.

    Look for a copy on ebay to see the cover, blurb on the flyleaf, and a photo of one of the interior pages.
