Meet a hilarious trio of reprobate cowpokes: Don, Deke, and the meanest of them all Dom ("He didn't even send a card at Christmas to his Mom") who are redeemed by tending to a baby. Kids will delight at the cowhands (mis)adventures trying to take care of the tyke-from feeding time ("Do you think she'd like some steak? Or maybe she'd like beans?") to changing diapers ("Aw shucks...she's sprung a leak!"). Mike Brownlow's tale combines a terrific sense of humor and a perfect story-telling ear, with a lush, saturated palette. This is one rib-ticklin', heartstring-tuggin' yarn that's sophisticated and funny enough for older readers - and action-packed and accessible to younger listeners.
This is a great story, entertaining to both young and old and the illustrations are great. I highly recommend it.

I would like to start by saying this is one of the best childrens books that I have read to my son. My son is 5 years old. I have read this book to him over and over and everytime I can see joy in his face. Every page is filled with excitement and laughter. I highly recommend this book to everyone with a child 4 yrs old and up.
