Cowboy Kid — Max Eilenberg

Yesiree! A bright new bedtime book illustrated by the creator of the award-winning COWBOY BABY.

Cowboy Kid loves Texas Ted, Denver Dog, and Hank the Horse with all his heart. Yes sirree! Before Sheriff Pa tucks him in, Cowboy Kid gives each toy a great big hug and a sleep-tight kiss. Now he's ready for bed. Or is he? Nosirree! Cowboy Kid reckons his friends might fancy just one more kiss, or a special blanket to keep them warm, or . . . one more kiss. Making sure everyone gets their fill of affection tuckers him out, but Cowboy Kid can't seem to round up any shut-eye, not until Sheriff Pa gathers him up in his arms with a wonderful secret.

Filled with familiar feelings and bold, simple illustrations, this bright bedtime tale reassures restless cowpokes -- and exasperated parents -- that sleepytime is just over the horizon.
