'Til the Cows Come Home

32 pp. | Boyds | March, 2004 | Trade ISBN 1-56397-987-X $$15.95
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Normand Chartier. Inspired by the old Yiddish tale about the tailor who reconfigures his overcoat into smaller and smaller garments, the teller spins a purely American yarn about a cowboy whose pair of chaps eventually becomes a button. While a little heavy on the corn, the story should please young cowhands. The illustrations are undistinguished but energetic. Author's note. Glos.
Reviewer: Amy Lois Cohn
