Kris & The Cowboys (The Adventures of Kris) by Art Blegen – Review by Krista Moulthrop

Kris & The Cowboys: The Adventures of Kris by Art Blegen
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This may be my favorite of the Kris stories so far. This time Kris goes to visit her uncle on a ranch. While there she learns how to ride a horse and be a real cowgirl. She is sad that she doesn’t get to go on the cattle drive with her uncle but she immerses herself in her books and learns about horses and even Indians, until her uncle returns. I just love how these stories involve a young (ish) kid that loves reading and uses their imagination. It shows how books can take you all sorts of places at any age. These are great stories for read aloud time or for kids (maybe age 6-10) that are just starting to read chapter books. There’s a few illustrations spread throughout the book which I also love. Definitely recommend these stories
