Cowpoke Clyde Rides the Range

32 pp. | Clarion | May, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-0-544-37030-2 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Michael Allen Austin. Cowpoke Clyde greets a newspaper advertisement for a bicycle with interest: "It wouldn't eat. It wouldn't stray. / It wouldn't buck or bite or neigh!" But his wobbliness on the vehicle leads to near misses with various animals. The book offers bouncy rhymes, comical illustrations of the rubber-faced protagonist in an Old West landscape, and a lesson in true grit.
