Ol' Jimmy Dollar loves his dogs. Jimmy is a cowboy and lives a simple life. His dogs -- Utensil, A-Frame, and Awesome -- are the center of his world. This is the tale of how they live together under the big sky. The glossary explains terms that cowboys use and will be pure entertainment to parents reading the story to their children.

In this book, we have a fun look at Jimmy Dollar, a fi ctional coonhunter, and his three dogs. Whatever else hunting with hounds may be, it sure is fun. I've hunted with hounds for more than half a century, and have never been bored. Frozen, frightened, injured ... okay. But never bored! And is Jimmy Dollar fi ction? Well, sure. But he is also out there on weekend nights, up and down the Rio Grande and the Pecos, and he has a lot of different names, but he's real, too. He's the spirit of the woods and the music of the dogs, and the everlasting hope in the breast of every hounddog man. A good race. A treed coon. Happy dogs. Coffee in the pickup. Can't beat it.
