"The straightforward language rolls off the storyteller's tongue [and] the colorful cartoon illustrations cleverly convey the action. . . . Altogether, this softer interpretation of the folktale will fit in with current sensibilities." -School Library Journal "A contagious read-aloud youngsters will love just as much as I did." -Susan Farrington, Sanford (NC) Herald "This book is just downright fun to read!" -Jan Peck, author of Way Out West on My Little Pony The author of Trucker's Night Before Christmas and Ten Redneck Babies: A Southern Counting Book has another Texas tale to tell. Gather 'round and listen to the adventures of a frustrated cowboy and his stubborn steer, and how difficult it can be to get home for supper! Old Texas cowboy Zeke is looking forward to a hot bowl of chili, but to get it, he must get his newly purchased steer into the corral. By enlisting the help of a collie, a mesquite stick, a campfire, a javelina, a burro, a prickly pear cactus, an armadillo, a pretty gal, and a mockingbird, he finally gets his dinner-but not without the possibility of the antics starting all over again! Told in the author's inimitable native Texan voice, this humorous story makes for great read-aloud fun. The book is full of colorful vocabulary reflecting the Southwest region and encourages children to follow along with its repetition of objects, animals, and actions.
