I am a wandering cowboy,
From ranch to ranch I roam;
At every ranch when welcome,
I make myself at home.
This book would be great for children in order to extend the content area of interested students in a social studies unit on Westward Expansion or Frontier Living. It would also dispel some of the folklore and/or baggage that sometimes come along with cowboys and the Wild West. Informative read. ( )
