More About This Book

Overview

A little boy who doesn't fit in at camp finds out just how valuable his non-cowboy skills can be. Every child will relate to the message, the humor, and the deliciously playful illustrations.

Giddyup, kids, and gallop right over to read this rootin' tootin' tale of an unlikely would-be hero. Avery's at camp, trying hard to saddle up and master his lasso, but he's just not like the other cowboys. He's allergic to the horses and can't stand the grub. But when a bully threatens all the campers, Avery proves his mettle in his own unique way. Young readers will have lots of fun with the story's lively language and wildly humorous pictures.

Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
K-Gr 2-Young Avery arrives at Cowboy Camp feeling self-conscious and inept. He is allergic to horses and beans, he can't twirl a lasso, and his name is all wrong. In the end, though, it's Avery who outsmarts Mean Black Bart during a midnight confrontation and becomes a hero. The text is concise, and the print is large and bold. The illustrations are funny and colorful, particularly the scene in which Avery spits out a mouthful of beans. The adult characters have exaggerated features, particularly the villain, who has a scary chin and a nose to rival that of any witch. This book will be appreciated by any child who has shared Avery's concerns about not fitting in with a group.-Polly L. Kotarba, Gordon Elementary School Library, Bellaire, TX Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.

    Extremely disappointed!

    The premise of this story is that a child who lies and decieves when in a pressured situation will be rewarded. Of the numerous accidental ways the main character, Avery, can prove his smarts as a cowboy, the author chooses to show him outsmart a bad guy with a fabrication. My 5 year old picked this up right away. The main character lied to save his skin. He thought it might be okay becaue it was fibbing to a bad guy. That's what he derived from the story. It took a few minutes of explaining. Are five year olds ready for a discussion about this? In their world they need black and white. Avery needs to be taught how NOT to lie when it is inconvenient to tell the truth. Avery already has poor self confidence. His success is built on deception and manipulation. Gee, now he will be a leader. How can this possibly be a book for kids? And to top it all at the end the book the real cowboy character praises Avery for finally acting like an honest-to-goodness cowboy. That is how the author characterizes westerners or ranchers? It's deplorable. I am a New Yorker born and bred. I am not to so jaded to believe that this is the way Texas thinks. And I have not become sophisticated enough to teach my children how to lie successfully. Yuk. I want a refund. Am a dad, and I am disgusted.

    Fun read

    I was really surprised to read the previous reviewer who hated this story because they felt it was teaching five year olds to lie in order to get out of a tight spot. Wow. In my opinion, this is a funny story that is very well narrated and which my 5 year-old was able to follow just fine. When Avery tricks Black Bart, my son loves it, and at the end of the story my son's face was beaming. This is definitely one of the better Read To Me books we've gotten.

    Good message for older children

    I can see how this story would have a good message for older children but it spooked my 3 year old. Also, the story was a bit slow for me.

    A favorite!

    This book is habitually requested by my 6yo and 3yo girls. It carries a terrific message of finding our individual strengths and I love that! As an reading specialist, I appreciate the repetition and rhythmic word play. Purchasing it for my nook is a no brainer. It will save me and the buck-a-roos on our upcoming road trip!

    Not as good as I was hoping.

    The book is ok for my 2 year old. He enjoys it, but there are several sentencesthat get repeated on every page. Seems likethey could have re worded it atleast. And being from the south, it was just not realistic and i cant sand to read it now. Just to far out. I mean rustlin rattle snakes....really?

    Rustlin' Rattlesnakes! Who ever heard of a cowboy named Avery?

    Exactly! Poor Avery turns out to be a terrible cowboy, but he saves the camp from Black Bart anyway using his terrible cowboy skills. The illustrations are fabulous and the voices of the narrator make the story fun & entertaining. Avery realizes that he's a real honest-go-goodness cowboy afterall, just in his own way.
