Customer Reviews

An excellent example of how much FUN children's literature can be

It's a story about cowboys - good guys and bad - but it doesn't really matter. The beauty of this tale lies in that you have a master story teller who carries you along with lyrical prose and engaging illustrations. I have the feeling Roy Gerrard could write about anything, and it would be a great story. Excuse me while I purchase every other children's book he's written...

Do not miss this book if you have kids, or even if you don't

With dashing flare and tuneful rhymes, Roy Gerrard brings us a colorful tale of the old west, where the good guys are the good guys and the villians just can't catch a break! We all loved the spirit of the old west, "Bonanza-style" and this is your chance to recapture it with and for your child. You will read it a hundred times if you read it once...I try for an accent that is early Walter Brennan. The art is second to none, the length just right for bedtime...in today's fast paced world, it is a pleasure to share this with your children! 5 STARS ONLY BECAUSE 6 ARE NOT AVAILABLE!
