Nicely done May 31, 2008 My kids and I enjoyed this book about a cowboy who doesn't quite fit in until he discovers a use for his talent. The words lend themselves to an accent so well, it's almost impossible to read without one. A great story about cowboy life for the young buckaroos.
A fun and inventive book of cowboy poetry March 13, 2006 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
With Julie Danneberg's writing, and Margot Apple's illustrations, Cowboy Slim is a fun and inventive book of cowboy poetry. Page after page, children will laugh wildly as Cowboy Slim rhymes and jokes about the good ol' west and all of the excursions he embarks upon with his dogies and horse. Danneburg's story is the perfect companion to the pictures which Apple breathes life into the story with. Equipped with a glossary of Buckaroo Banter, Cowboy Slim is a delightful recommendation for all children, especially those just beginning to read.br /
