"As
an educator, former special education teacher, and foster parent to a
challenged child, I constantly have looked for materials and programs
that support children's fragile self-esteem. The Knock-Kneed Cowboy
is both an enjoyable tale and an excellent tool for parents and
educators. Written by a retired teacher, this tale combines
entertainment, opportunities for class discussion and creative writing,
and expansion of reading skills. A 'must-have' for teachers and parents
of intermediate-grade students in any culture."

"The Knock-Kneed Cowboy
has a powerful message for kids everywhere. In this wild and wonderful
escapade, a misfit cowboy finds his value and learns one of the
greatest lessons in life - it's okay to be different. It's okay to be
me. This delightful adventure harkens back to Princess Bride, Aladdin,
and timeless tales that inspire kids to be true to themselves and to
follow their dreams."
