Description:

When young Wallace Bleff is asked to share his summer vacation story with the class, he doesn't bother with the usual camps or family visits. According to Wallace, he was on his way to spend a quiet holiday with Aunt Fern — packed off by parents who thought his imagination needed a rest — when a band of cowboys swooped in and carried him off into the Wild West. What followed was a season of buckin' broncos, lasso lessons, campfires under the stars, and learning every trick in the buckaroo handbook. Then, just as Aunt Fern was hosting her barbecue, a thundering cattle stampede rolled in — and only "Kid Bleff" could save the day. Told in lively, bouncing rhyme and brought to life by Mark Teague's richly detailed, Western-tinged illustrations, this is a tall tale of imagination running joyfully off the rails.
