Boos of pleasure

I buy Hank the Cowdog books for children of friends and family. I did read a few pages to see just what was so great about Hank. It was great. Any child reading these books will love them.

The Case of the Fiddle Playing Fox

All of John's books are funny and cute. In this book a foxhypnotizes the chickens and makes them dance on the floor. While hedoes that he sneaks over and eats the eggs. The next day Sally May is mad because she did not get her 12 eggs. You should read this book sometime and find out what else happens. END

Fabulous fiddling fox causes Hank problems

As usual, Hank is up against an unusual problem. The fox is in the hen house, but he's been INVITED!! The rooster, Drover and Hank are all suspicious about music in the night, but no one seems to be able to stay awake to find out what it is...I thought that this was a wonderful book. Actually, we heard it on tape, which is many times better than the book form. The author gives each character their own voice and personalities, and sings his songs as they are meant to be heard. These tapes are great for long car rides, rainy days, and just about any other kind of day in between. I HIGHLY recommend these children AND adults.
