LITERATURE
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Dan Burr. This compilation of twenty-two poems presents a clear image of cowboy life by touching on issues such as branding, the bunkhouse, stampedes, and cattle drives. The free verse, written in country vernacular, is rhythmic and filled with genuine-feeling details. Burr's digital paintings create a rugged southwestern setting of hardship, toil, and beauty. An addendum on cowboy history extends the offering.
