It's long out of print, but I recall this kid's book title at primary
school when I was a kid, about a cow whose 'black bits' resembled a
world map. Her owner's son painted an equator around her for good
measure I recall!

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cow-Map-World-Maggie-Scott/dp/0859850080/sr=1-11/qid=1159450038/ref=sr_1_11/026-2075363-5802865?ie=UTF8&s=books

Back in the days when a kid's book was 20p new!
