5-0 out of 5 stars Lily's rewiew
Bill Pickett isthe greatest book because it is shows about an afrian american thats wants to be a cowboy. The problem is that he is afrian american. Then he show the cowboy that he could do it. When he did the stunt everyone was suprised. When he grew up. He was very famous as an rodeo.

4-0 out of 5 stars Great Job
This book tells about how Pickett, the oldest of 13 children, invented his technique of catching a steer by the horns, twisting its head up, and clamping its upper lip with his teeth until the steer toppled over. Pickett went on to become the first African-American to be inducted into the National Rodeo Cowboy Hall of Fame.This story was very inspiring to me. I enjoyed reading about Pickett's life and the illustrations were wonderful as well.The author chose to write this book to inspire people (children).It is defiantly written for struggling readers but would keep a fluent reader very entertained.This would be a great book to use to do a lesson on Black History month. ...

2-0 out of 5 stars James needed to rein in his pen
This is the best of the three books in the "Uncle Bill" trilogy, if only because it was infused with all of the action missing from the first two installments. Scootie and Kip arrive in Montana for their third summer-long visit on their uncle Frank's Five Barb Ranch, only to discover that Frank and Bill plan to leave them in town while they move a newly acquired herd of bulls to the ranch. The kids are adamant against staying in town any longer than necessary, and the men finally relent to letting them tag along.Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars TheKirkus Review up above is incorrect
This is book #4, not book #3. The format is the same - an old black cowboy is telling stories to his old dog about Blacks in the early history of the United States - a long-ignored area of history. This series sheds some much-needed light and avoids being preachy.

4-0 out of 5 stars Of Mice and Men , Britt Stanton , Student at Mace's Lane Middle School
The book "Of Mice and Men," in my opinionis a very well written book.John Steinbeck really thought the book out.When you read this book you will notice alot of foreshadowing.The foreshadowing makes the book worthwhile.The book takes place in Salinas, California which in the time of The Great Depression there weren't many rich or wealthy people; George and Lennie will show you the life of non-wealthy people during this time.
5-0 out of 5 stars True masterpiece
If an index could be created that would measure a book's significance and divide it by the number of words, few books would come anywhere near "Of Mice and Men". This is a book that every aspiring writer (and many active ones) should read and then keep in mind as a guide to packing meaning into every word, every image, every scene, and every character. Absolutely nothing is wasted here.
5-0 out of 5 stars Of mice and men is a great book ...
I am just a 16-year-old girl who is now in year 10, and have just finished reading 'Of mice and men'. I really enjoyed this book because it was talking about dreams and goals. This book is showing us that you don't have to be upper class people to have dreams. George and Lennie's dream was achievable and it is this positive attitude that binds them together and separates them from the rest. I really liked this book and recommend it for people of all ages.Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars YeeeHaw
While I have one reservation about this book, it is good fun. THe illustrations are charming and full of detail, and Matthew really saves the day from the cattle rustlers. He is a smart young hero, and the story helps you learn the names of cowboy gear such as chaps, bridle, spurs, etc. I also enjoyed the little desert creatures that seemed to follow Matthew around.5-0 out of 5 stars If you have a toddler who's a cowboy, get this book!
There seem to be very few books for toddlers on cowboys. This is the best, and will continue to be even if others are written.Matthew gets a cowboy outfit for his birthday, and then "becomes" (in his imagination) a real cowboy, solving a mystery and capturing the bad guys in a non-violent way (the only "weapon" is a lasso, and the only visible pistol remains in the sherrif's holster).The book is PC:the storekeeper is oriental, and cowhands Slim, Tex, and Pete seem (from the wonderful illustrations) to be a senior citizen, woman, and Afro-American, respectively.My two-and-a-half-year-old son, who believes himself to be a real cowboy, has me read this to him at least twice each night, asking questions about the pictures, and generally being thrilled with it.If you have a toddler who's a cowboy, this is definitely the book for you.(Amazon.com's suggested age range of 4-8 may be about right, but, as I noted, my son is quite a bit younger and ! loves it.) ...

Ihighly recommend it. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars Lone Cowboy
Independance is riding a Wyoming ridgeline on Christmas eve in a blizzard,catching the lights of a remote cabin in the valley below,and deciding whether or not to ride down to the cabin,based soley on how badly you think that you really need a cup of coffee.Will James is the "Lone Cowboy"in this turn of the century autobiography of the life of a drifter who roams from Mexico to Canada in search of ranch work.Abandoned as an infant,James was raised by a French Canadian trapper who provide equal doses of love and sink or swim trials.James fills the many lonely and isolated hours of his youth with drawing.The book contains many of James's illustrations of cowboy life and particularly beautiful renditions of his favorite subject,horses.A simple cowboy tale to most,this story will, to some readers ,provide a moving testimony to the spirit of courage,stubborness,independance that characterized the itinerent cowpokes of the old west.A wonderful book for young readers who will love the early stories about trapping,camping and getting that first horse.All will enjoy the beautiful artwork that so effectively illustrates the storyline.This sensitive story,told by the roughest of men, will provide a moving experience for all readers. ...
