Cowpoke Clyde and Dirty Dawg

32 pp. | Clarion | May, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-0-547-23993-4 $16.99
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Michael Allen Austin. Plucky rhymes with a Western twang relate a cowpoke's comic attempts to bathe his dog, who's "all caked with mud from end to end." Dawg objects, and other ranch animals--fleas, a hog, cats, and a mule--are caught in the struggle. After considerable mayhem, Dawg eventually relents and joins Clyde in the tub. Children will delight in Austin's colorful, boisterous illustrations.
Reviewer: Luther B. Clegg
