CELEBRATE with your favorite Gingerbread Cookie. Here’s mine—
THE GINGERBREAD COWBOY -- can run from the rancher's wife, he can dash past the javalinas and he can giddyup right by the cattle grazing on the mesa. But what happens when he meets a coyote sleeping in the sun?
The
Gingerbread Cowboy was the 2007 Arizona Governor’s First Grade Book. A special
edition of 100,000 copies was distributed to every first grader in the state.
Here
are a handful of reviews:
5.0 out of 5 stars "super” Reviewed in
France on May 5, 2021
Five Stars "A
great contrast to the traditional English version. Used it in KS1." —Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 2, 2015
"A
delightful, infectiously cheerful, Southwestern rendition of a familiar story.
Phrases used to describe biscuits, such as "plump as pillows, soft as
clouds and tasty as a big Texas Barbecue," just roll off the tongue
..." The lively text demands to be read aloud ... A fresh version of an
old favorite."
— School
Library Journal, August, 2006
"Sure to delight
youngsters, as well as introduce them to the flora, fauna and geography of the
west ... A welcome change of setting for the Gingerbread Man, sure to find a
spot on the library shelf."
— Kirkus
