1-3Adventures of Young Buffalo Bill series.
Illustrated by
Scott Snow.
In the first volume of this series, the Cody family--still grieving after the death of oldest son Sammy--leaves Iowa to homestead in Kansas Territory. Although some historical information about the era is awkwardly grafted onto the dialogue, this fictional portrait of eight-year-old Bill and his family's episodic journey across the prairie, should please fans of the Wild West. Occasional black-and-white illustrations break up the text.
