In the Depression ravished 30's did a poor farm boy or girl have a greater love than their pony or dog? The author recounts his experiences and those of his neighbors in and around Manning, Iowa, the author's hometown. In carefully crafted fiction, boys attempt to win a race with plow horses. In a true story, hear the words of his father instilling a horse-trading reality in him and how his father managed to keep his cool when a team proves smarter than his son, an honor student. In larger-than-life stories, a plodding horse halts a runaway boy; a colorful team of horses promotes romance and a dog saves a marriage. Share in the exploits of the mischievous apprentice dog that creates confusion and attempts to take credit for the entire evening roundup. Or learn of the lovable dog too scared to hunt; how a dog saves a boy's life, and another saves a girl. Meet the boy who enjoys dining with the President's dog. The author retells the tales of true animal heroes for "children" of all ages, recalling the time in rural America where 'making do' was the only way there was.

Munro Nathaniel Hawthorne Washington Irving Winston Churchill Enid Bagnold Leo Tolstoy Bret Harte Zane Grey and many, many others.
This sparkling collection of tales told around Western campfires, written by the master chronicler of the range, is a literary find of great interest and genuine importance. Andy Adams is remembered chiefly as the author of The Log of a Cowboy. Among the most charming features of the Log are the stories the cowhands told around the fires at night when the day's work was done. Similar and equally delightful stories are scattered throughout several other less successful novels, long out of print, while others that never saw publication were found by the editor among Adams' papers. In the present book, Wilson M. Hudson has gathered together these tales of the trail and camp into one volume that surely will delight the hearts of all readers who are interested in the old West.
This book takes classic sayings (Look Before you Leap and If the Shoe Fits, Wear It) and turns them into simple stories about life's situations, in a fable format. It's designed to encourage fun and learning and to stimulate questions and interactions. While the stories are simple, everything is not obvious. When questions arise, readers use their own frame of reference and imagination to bring out the meaning of each story.
'Horse Tales' is a collection of stories about these equine animals, written with the intention to delight children. Each chapter is dedicated to a different horse, with each being entitled with names such as Simon, Snowie, and Bob.
In thirteen stories full of rope burns and brush scratches, the author of the classic Horse Tradin? tells of the days when he made a specialty of catching wild cows. ΓΈ Ben K. Green calls himself a ?stove-up old cowboy,? and readers of this book will learn soon enough where the broken bones came from. Green tells of his adventures with wild steers, sharing with readers the years he worked in thorny brush and canyon country delivering those animals that were too wily or too wild for the normal roundup. Finding them was hard, even dangerous, work. Few cowboys looked for such chores. Green declares, ?I got real good at it, but of course in those days I didn?t know any better.?
