Editorial Review:

Product Description:
It's Cowboy Ned's birthday! His trusty dapple gray steed, Andy, knows that the best thing to have on your birthday is a birthday cake. While Cowboy Ned sleeps soundly, Andy wanders across the desert in search of a birthday surprise for his friend and along the way discovers what really makes a birthday special.

Echoing the simple yet graceful cowboy poetry of yore, David Ezra Stein's picture-book debut celebrates best friends.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Cute but Monster Hug is so much better!
Cute illustrations and sweet story, but the text is way too long. Also, I'm not a huge fan of kids books where someone else solves the main character's problem. But another book by this author is GREAT: Monster Hug. Check that one out instead!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A delightful story about a cowboy and his horse! A REAL DAY BRIGHTENER!

This book will delight all the little ones in your family. It's a heart-warming tale of friendship between a cowboy and his faithful horse, Andy. The cover catches your attention right away with the colorful illustration, and Andy's larger-than-life, emotional facial expressions keep you smiling all the way through.

An exceptional tale of friendship and how people can learn a lot from their pets. The art is truly appropriate to this author's wonderful way with words ... and ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Kids will ride off into the sunset with this book! A real treasure!
Found this book by accident while browsing around Amazon. Ordered it and loved it!
Andy's devotion to his cowboy Ned is touching. Makes me want to get a horse ... like King, the pony I had as a child. In my imagination, I can just see King doing something "human and loving" like Andy.
The illustrations are perfect for this author's well-chosen words.
A good, entertaining book.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A western tale
This picture book captures the narrative flow of a western tale, with words simple enough for a child to understand but complex enough to tell a detailed story. The art blends familiar cartoon characters against a western backdrop, connecting today's children with a cherished view of America's past.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - An excellent book for children of all ages
I love the message of this book. Children are constantly being bombarded with messages of needing more and more stuff. This books lesson is that good friends are more important than stuff. The story full of magic moments and beautiful illustrations too.
