Illustrated by
Molly Idle.
Rodeo Red--a red-haired girl in dress-up duds--is never without her (stuffed) canine companion "until Sideswiping Slim showed up." That baby-faced baby nabs the pooch when big sister's back is turned, so Red has to git back what's hers while avoiding a time-out. High-spirited illustrations straddle Red's real life and her wild (west) imagination; the drawling text is full of kid-centric, Old West–flavored expressions.
