Colorado Cowboy
Description
When the cowhands get into an argument about who is the best roper and bronc rider, they decide the only way to settle the argument is to have a contest. The coauthor is Pat Sargent.
Quick Summary
Little cowpokes who dream of wild west adventures will holler "yeehaw" at this showdown between the roughest riders and ropers in the territory. Kids will cheer as the cowhands compete in roping and bronc riding contests, with plenty of tumbleweed-twisting action and friendly rivalry to keep pages turning. If your kid likes other cowboy tales like Cowgirl or enjoys silly western humor, they'll rope this book into their favorites pile. Perfect for kids ages 5-8 or in kindergarten through third grade who love animals, competition, and short, fast-paced stories.
