Ride 'am cowboy

What a joyful read about a young boy following in his father's footsteps down on the ranch. From his early morning start dressing in his chaps and cowboy hat 'just like his dad' down to his helping bringing the cattle home. What a hard working little not who sees his chores as a delight and not work when out with his dad and the other farm hands.

A charming story of love for family, especially the love between father and son. Happy Reading Book Lovers 🌹📚📖

A simple, sweet short story. Beautiful illustration and the cover is eye-catching. Loved the entire story. Bonding between son and father is written wonderfully

This was a okay picture book about a boy doing everything that his father does. It is set on a cattle ranch in which father and son work hand-in-hand. The boy admires his father for what he does so much, that when he gets older he wants to be a spitting image of his father.
