Lasso Lou and Cowboy McCoy

Autographed copies are available for $16 plus $2.00 shipping. Please send me an email with your address, the number of books desired and how you would like them personalized.


When Cowboy McCoy meets Lasso Lou, life at the Bo-Dee-Oh Ranch is never the same – but it is more fun!

Together these plucky pardners do their best to meet every challenge: 
   - figuring out what shouldn't be roped 
   - deciding which end of the horse is best for riding    
   - and discovering that even the most rootin' tootin' adventure is better with a true pal along to share the ride.
