How to be a COWBOY
Activity Book
Category: Non-Fiction
The ultimate guide to becoming a cowboy.
This activity book contains maps of the cowboys’ favourite stomping grounds, a dress-your-own-cowboy paper doll (with cut-out clothes, colonial spurs, woollies and batwing chaps), a talk-like-a-cowboy guide, a sheet of super-cool stickers, and real-life cowboy recipes to try cooking at home. And for when you’re ready to become a cowboy, you can pick and choose your own ranch name.
Beautiful illustrations and fun activities from illustrator Alice Lickens, who was awarded the prestigious Sendak Fellowship in 2012, make this an exquisite gift book to treasure, ideal for aspiring cowboys and cowgirls of all ages from 3 to 83.
