When a little boy gets to spend the day at Grandma's, he's really preparing to go on the cowboy ride of his dreams. With his imagination in tow, he and his partner (brother) ride their horses (Mum and Dad) to meet their ranch hand (Grandma). After the parents depart, the posse rustles up cattle' and has a great day doing all the things that cowfolk do! Then when night falls, this cowboy's fantastic adventure ends in a wonderfully reassuring way, as he and his 'horse' are reunited, just in time to be tucked into beds.'
A WILD COWBOY is a perfect book for young kids with a lot of imagination! This is the cute little story of a little boy on his way to spend the day with his grandmother and how he equates everything to cowboy life. His brother is his "pardner", his wagon, rope and toys make up his "cowpoke stuff" and his Mama is his "horse" and they all make the journey to the West (grandmother's house) for a day of doing stuff that little boys love doing, or in this case, cowboys! With colorful illustrations to go along with the rhyming lines of this book, children of all ages are sure to be delighted as they too travel through the imagination of Dana Kessimakis. The message of a loving family and their daily happenings are clearly drawn and depicted from page to page of A WILD COWBOY. Reviewed by Tee C. Royal of The RAWSISTAZ Reviewers
