Illustrated in full color. In a wildly funny twist on the annual "How I
spent my summer vacation" school-essay ritual, Mark Teague shakes up a dull
classroom with a young student's imaginative account of his adventures in the
Wild West. Most kids go to camp, or Grandma's house, or maybe they're stuck at
home all summer. Not Wallace Bleff. He was "supposed" to visit his Aunt
Fern. Instead, Wallace insists, he was carried off by cowboys and taught the
ways of the West--from riding buckin' broncos to roping cattle. Lucky for Aunt
Fern, he showed up at her house just in time to divert a stampede from her
barbecue party! Perfect for back-to-school read-alouds, here's a western
fantasy with sparkling illustrations and enough action to knock kids' boots off!
