In Every Cowgirl Needs a Horse, Nellie Sue does everything with a western flair. Whether it is cleaning up the animal sty (picking up her stuffed animals) or rounding up cattle (getting the neighborhood kids together for her birthday party), she does it like a true cowgirl. All she really needs is a horse. So when Dad announces at her birthday party, “I got a horse right here for you,” Nellie Sue is excited. But when her horse turns out to be her first bicycle, it will take an imagination as big as Texas to help save the day. Activities for Every Cowgirl Needs a Horse by Rebecca Janni

Like all adventurous cowgirls, Nellie Sue loves to go camping--and it's time to try her skills in the wild outdoors. But, when night falls and the woods come alive with creaking noises, these happy campers aren't so happy anymore! Nellie Sue must use her biggest cowgirl courage to make it through the night with a smile on her face. With playful, simple text and a super sweet ending, this Level 2 reader is a perfect choice for children beginning to read.

Nellie Sue is back with brand-new dancing boots and her usual cowgirl flair. She knows that dancing would be more fun with friends, but her new neighbors, the Glitter Girls, would rather pirouette and twirl than hoedown. Nellie decides to throw a Barnyard Bash and invite the whole neighborhood. With her big imagination, Nellie transforms her garage into the perfect place to do-si-do. Soon everyone is joining in, but could a slip, a trip, and a slide cause her big bash to be a big messy flop?

A little girl imagines what her daily life would be like if she were a cowgirl, living out west on a ranch with cows and sheep, riding a horse, and sleeping under the stars. Filled with humor and imaginative play, this sweet story captures the dream of zillions of little girls everywhere. Full color. 11 x 8 1/2.

Cocoa the horse does not want Cowgirl Kate to go to school without him.

"During the 1800s, many settlers moved westward across North America to seek their fortunes as farmers, ranchers, and miners. In the Wild West, there were few towns and few people paid much attention to laws. Readers will take a trip through this thrilling period of American history as they join Louise and Nat for a tale of cowboys in a frontier town. They will find out how people lived, worked, and traveled in the Wild West, and much more."--Publisher's description.
