Cowgirl Alphabet

By Laurie Knowlton

From the author of Why Cowboys Sleep with Their Boots On, this educational alphabet book defines the nature of cowgirls in twenty-six alphabetized entries. The text's snappy rhythm, full of alliteration, does just as much to illustrate the subject as the accompanying water-color paintings. From A is for All-American Girls to Z is for Cowgirl Zelda from Zanesville brushing her Zebra Dun, each letter represents multiple words in the cowgirl vocabulary.

Packed with good information, this guide gives a translation of horse-talk for understanding every neigh, nod, and nicker. Other valuable resources include the cowgirl's code of conduct, a list of uses for a kerchief, and instructions on heeling a cow and reading a brand. Every gal with an air of confidence and a zest for life has the makings of real cowgirl. The rest is in the details, from A to Z.
