Bubba is bossed around the family ranch by his wicked step-daddy and his nasty stepbrothers, Dwayne and Milton. Bubba never complains, though. He's a real cowboy - tough as leather (and cute as a cow's ear).

When Miz Lurleen, the purtiest rancher in Texas, decides to throw a ball to find herself a real feller, Bubba has to stay at home. "You smell more like the cattle than the cattle do," laugh Dwayne and Milton. But with the help of Bubba's fairy godcow, and a little Texas magic, Miz Lurleen finds the cowboy prince she's always dreamed of.

More About This Book

Overview

Bubba is bossed around the family ranch by his wicked step-daddy and his nasty stepbrothers, Dwayne and Milton. Bubba never complains, though. He's a real cowboy - tough as leather (and cute as a cow's ear).

When Miz Lurleen, the purtiest rancher in Texas, decides to throw a ball to find herself a real feller, Bubba has to stay at home. "You smell more like the cattle than the cattle do," laugh Dwayne and Milton. But with the help of Bubba's fairy godcow, and a little Texas magic, Miz Lurleen finds the cowboy prince she's always dreamed of.

With its western brand of language and humor, this Texas retelling of the Cinderella story will really rope in readers.

Loosely based on "Cinderella," this story is set in Texas, the fairy godmother is a cow, and the hero, named Bubba, is the stepson of a wicked rancher.

Editorial Reviews

Children's Literature
The premise isn't original, but the execution and artwork certainly are. Bubba is a ranch hand, with two dimwitted, lazy stepbrothers. When Miz Lurleen, a rich rancher from down the road, throws a ball, of course Bubba doesn't have the proper clothes. He is rescued by a fairy godcow, who turns one of the longhorns into a white stallion and Bubba's threads into a fabulous Stetson and crisp jeans. At midnight, Bubba loses his cowboy boot, but eventually Miz Lurleen finds Bubba and they ride off into the sunset. The text is full of outrageous Texas-size sayings, such as "darker than a black bull at midnight" and "another ten dollar Stetson on a five cent head." The paintings are brightly colored and fanciful, with wonderful perplexed expressions on the rest of the cattle when the fairy godcow shows up. Great fun and a wonderful twist on the Cinderella story.

    This book is a hoot.

    I thought "Bubba and Cowboy Prince" was a hoot. I read this book to a group of 1st graders that really enjoyed it. The book is fun to read and keeps the audience in stitches.

    Great New Take on an Old Favorite

    I won't tell waht the old favorite is because you'll have so much fun discovering it for yourself. This is a great read aloud, especially if you have a Texas accent. The illustrations are by Andy Warhol's nephew and have a lot of funny details.

    Keeps the kids entertained!

    I read this book several times to my first grade class. They can not get enough of it. It is a great, amusing variation of the classic fairy tale Cinerella, that all of the children enjoyed and loved. They love to read it over and over again!

    You'll Love It!

    I thought this book was funny because the Cinderella character is a cowboy. Even though Bubba's wicked stepdaddy spoiled his brothers he never complained about his chores. This book also had a happy ending.
