Do Cowboys Ride Bikes? (Paperback, illustrated edition)

,
"Fourteen questions a young child might ask about cowboys, such as where they live, what they look like, what they eat, etc., are answered in rhyme. Rollicking, cartoon-style illustrations done in pen and ink and watercolors capture the silliness and humor of the verses. The words have a lilting ring that makes them inviting to beginning readers." -- School Library Journal

"The team that created Do Pirates Take Baths? returns with another humorous question-and-answer picture book -- this one devoted to cowhands. Tucker's 14 queries range from the obvious ("What do cowboys eat?" and "Where do cowboys live?") to the ridiculous ("Do cowboys ride bikes?" and "Do cowboys ever take off their boots?"), with rhymed responses offering more or less accurate information. The real fun comes from Westcott's droll ink-and-acrylic illustrations, which portray cowpokes donning long johns, roasting marshmallows, sleeping in boots, and applying hair tonic before a night out on the town. The cows cash in on the fun, too, panting during a stampede and joining in at a campfire serenade." -- Booklist
