| Description: |
Ten-year-old Kip and his eleven-year-old sister Scootie travel
from the city to spend the summer on a western ranch. They learn
to ride, to throw a rope, and almost everything a cowboy needs to
know from one of the best and kindest of cowboys--old uncle Bill.
Kip and Scootie ask lots of questions about cowboying--the ones
you've always wanted to ask--and Uncle Bill patiently responds,
coloring his answers with stories from his younger days of riding
the rough string. He tells them how handling cattle came to be
called cowpunching, what hackamores and tapideros are for, and
why some horses have a wild nature. Uncle Bill's wisdom and
knowledge keep the children out of trouble--most of the time--as
they ride the range and join in the roundup. So ride along with
Kip, Scootie, and Uncle Bill on a western adventure you'll never
forget.
Will James wrote Uncle Bill--the first of three books that
feature the wise old cowboy--specifically for children, but the
story will delight readers of all ages who want to learn about
the cowboy life.
Uncle Bill: A Tale of Two Kids and a Cowboy is the eighth
title in the Tumbleweed Series of Will James reprints.
