Customer Reviews

Funny adventure!

This is such a fun book! The story and illustrations are so full of life; you can't help but want to know what happens next. Not only is it our boys' favorite book (ages 6 and 3), it's my husband's and my favorite children's book as well. A great gift.

A wonderful tale with wonderful illustrations!

"we liked it!" says my 5-year old daughter! a fun book, a funny book, a great story, great pictures and lots of laughs!

Do-si-do with a Rattler!

Jack Rabbit is boastful. He crows that he can dance with a rattler without getting bit. He can scare off a whole herd of longhorn cattle. He can run so fast he can skedaddle through a skunk's burrow without getting all stunk-up. He's so brave he can kiss all the coyotes up on Tabletop Rock! Fox tells Jack Rabbit that he could "talk the tail off a turkey vulture and never tell a lick of truth." Gila Monster adds that Jack Rabbit is "all gurgle and no guts." They dare him to kiss the coyotes. This action-packed story and its boisterous drawings roar along, with lots of great lingo appropriate to a blabber-mouth braggart!

Rip roaring good fun for young readers

Kissing Coyotes is the type of book that my grown sons would have loved as young readers. In your face illustrations full of action and color and a chase that will leave your little ones on the edge of their seats. Nice lesson about the consequences of being boastful all wrapped up in a delightful story, action prose and full page graphics. Another winner offered to us by Rising Moon Publishing.

A Fun Read-Aloud

I saw this book in a gift shop and just laughed and laughed! The words are so fun to say and the story is so lively and cute, this is a great book to read aloud to kids. The author made good use of alliteration, internal rhyme, and best of all--silly wild west words. It's a tall tale about a bragging jackrabbit and all the critters of the desert. Don't buy it used!... Buy it NEW because you're going to read this book over and over.
