The Brave Cowboy

Reanimating a classic, Joan Walsh Anglund adds her beautiful line drawings to the timeless story of a young cowboy—a perfect gift for children.

"Once there was a cowboy. He was strong and brave. He was not afraid of coyotes. He was not afraid of mountain lions. He was not afraid of ornery rustlers. . . ." —from The Brave Cowboy

This adorable gift book for children features Joan's black and red line drawings on cream-colored stock. The red illustrations represent the brave cowboy's imaginary world of bandits, rattlesnakes, stagecoaches, and fair maidens. Joan's inspiration for the main character came from her son when he was about three years old.
