Illustrated by
Deborah Allwright.
Told in the familiar song's bouncy rhythm, the story heralds the arrival of a spunky cowgirl in pink pajamas. The lively illustrations are painted in a turquoise, purple, green, and orange palette. Wild West motifs abound; two fold-out pages that look like saloon doors open wide to welcome the heroine. Endnotes suggest hand motions for the song. Music is included.
