Description

Cowboy Pete is based on an original song created by Jean Shaw. She fashioned the song in 1980 for her first grandson, who really did have a pony named Apple Dumplin’. A lilting tune and open-ended phrases are perfect for traveling music, happy occasions or restless pre-nap enthrallment.

Author Brenda Black pert near breaks all the rules for juvenile literature by making this story one for multiple ages and reading levels. It is sturdy in design and simplistic enough for an infant, while engaging, interactive and repetitive for a toddler. Added educational elements and a horsey parable make the book enjoyable for older children as well. It’s a book to love from the beginning and grow with as your family embarks on a day’s adventure with a cowboy and his trusty steed.
