Painted mountains at daybreak.Rising slowly, cowpokes wake. They don their boots and hats and chaps, down their flapjacks, then it's up into the saddle and off they go. through the chaparral and sage... This description may be from another edition of this product.
Some of the boys in my first grade class have launched into a cowboy phase (hopefully due to a ranch-themed week in reading) and this is one of the books they had me read to them. Most of all I loved the illustrations, though the nice, thoughtful prose of the cowboy life was nice as well. It's pretty and easy to read for the kids, and the illustrations are fun to look
Fun, well-illustrated cowboy book

Cowpokes features simple, rhyming text, and lovely, colorful illustrations with native desert flora & fauna. There are "games" we discovered in the book, too, such as hidden animals amongst the cliffs, and locating the groundhog on every page. If your littles like cowboys, horses or the desert, this is the book for you!!
