Illustrated by
Tom Curry.
Two cows daydream about becoming cowgirls and spending their days roping steer, dancing at hoedowns, and competing in rodeos. The slight story is told in brief rhymes that are sometimes creative ("Saddle up, / boots on. / Giddy-up / and giddy gone!") and sometimes forced. The humorous acrylic illustrations express the absurdity of the situation.
