Cowboy Jesse

by Nancy Allen, Vickie Kastl (Illustrator)

Overview

When ten space aliens land in his backyard, what does Jesse do? First, he runs and hides. Then Jesse uses his bandana, his cowboy boots, and his lariat to round up the aliens one by one. But when they escape his lasso, Jesse ends up with more than he bargained for--ten unexpected friends.

A humorous counting book.

Nancy and her husband, Larry, live in the log house in which she grew up, and they share their home with two canine writing assistants, Jazi and Roxi.
