Product Overview
Take a rollicking ride through the Wild, Wild West with the original cowboy, Pecos Bill. Raised by coyotes to brave the great frontier, Pecos rides his wild mustang Widow-Maker and invents the first rough-and-tumble cattle drive. Then he mounts a runaway cyclone like a buckin bronco to create the Great Salt Lake. Rich in language, imagery, and sheer nonsensical fun, Pecos Bill is a fast and furious fantasy your family is sure to enjoy. Illustrated by Tim Raglin. Ages 5 and up. Part of the award-winning Rabbit Ears series, American Heroes & Legends. Audio and video versions using the same text and illustrations are narrated by Robin Williams (with not a few hilarious ad libs) with original music by Ry Cooder.
